Atmospherics

[poliphilo]

 They keep promising us thunderstorms- but there seems to be something about the atmospherics of this area where land meets sea that drives the big clouds away to north and south and keeps us tingling in anticipation of a ruckus that never happens. Last night as the sky got more and more leaden I saw a single scribble of lightning and- a long time after- heard a faint drum roll- and that was it.

The day before yesterday- or maybe the day before that- was the hottest of the year. This morning we have an overcast and the air is cooler. 

I would welcome a proper storm and some proper rain....

They've been forecasting thunderstorms here all Summer (not so surprising as we're on the Severn) but we had one slight rumble some weeks back and that's been it.
