          Just had a min thunderstorm - nearest clap was 4 miles away. Only lasted 5 minutes or so but silenced Radio 2 for a couple of minutes,

                    Yesterday we had sun, very strong winds and occasional heavy rain. This morning there is no wind and the sun is shining brightly.

                    @Zigs when I was at Dawlish in in 1950 I saw a waterspout come in from the sea and hit the beach - and then collapse!

                      That would see me off - I don't like it too warm, in fact anything over 22º during the day is wasted on me :biggrin:

                        We are running mid 20s in the day and high teens at night and thankfully we've had plenty of rain to go with it! :love30: Desperately needed after five months of not a drop. The garden is loving it but it is playing hell on the sinuses! But I am not complaining ... except that I wanted to go to the beach for lunch at the Chinese as my b-in-law is with us but not sure it's perfect weather for that ... :frown:

                        View from the restaurant seating outside on Christmas Day where we always go for crispy duck ...

                          Glad to hear you're safe and sound Joolz. :) It's sad that others weren't so lucky.

                          A lovely bright, sunny afternoon from noon onwards, 15C.

                          Raining, but not windy. Hopefully it will cheer up a bit later :)
