Dark cloud was forecast throughout today, but by 11-ish it was bright and pleasant, 24C. Just right for pétanque by the cathedral.

Lots of rain here for days now Same here. Down to earth with a bump since coming back from England where it was 23° for the wedding on Saturday. Just before landing here in France, the pilot announced it was 11°. Brrr!

Pleasant and sunny until 11h when we had a sharp shower. Now the sky is clearing and it should be fine for the rest of the day. Showers forecast for overnight and tomorrow.

Heavy showers & very overcast here. Wind from the west with Ventusky showing cloud cover all day. On a brighter note, I did manage the Mutt's walk at first light without it raining. 2days out of 2 so far & may it continue for the next week or so

On reflection I'm not sure the showers I mentioned that were to arrive overnight and today was the right choice of word. We've had intermittent heavy squalls with high winds which have battered us all night. Forecast to stop around lunchtime .. I hope so, it's horrible out there.

I think we had half the Pacific ocean dropped on us yesterday, but lovely and bright this morning. Storms and high winds on the way for later in the day. Always makes me nervous because there are some very large trees in full leaf in my garden along with an enormous Cedar of Lebanon yards from the house. Hey ho, fingers crossed.

The forecast is for a mainly sunny day with occasional cloud and a high of 24C here in the Gard.
At home in Berkshire they’ve not had the awful weather and flooding that many other places have been having, but the road crossing the bottom of our road is flooded for the second day, with a car stuck in the middle of the junction, in the dip. Both are hills and apparently water is rushing from gardens and drives and adding to the water levels. The level of water in the lake close by is very high, so rainwater isn’t able to move there as it normally would. Our son says there was a really massive downpour over the last couple of days and the yellow weather warning for rain continues.
I’m so glad I’m here!

We've had a few super days .. bright sunshine from early on til dusk, tho with a fresh breeze. Now sadly no more .. grey and chilly this morning, quite depressingly grey. And a few drops of rain have just fallen.

Fridays very gusty squalls and torrential downpours drought down a silver birch which partially demolished a blackthorn hedge and blocked the drive to the house. Biggles had to drive across a large wild grassland area to get home. He then had to clear the fallen trees and cut back the hedge to give us access. So, yesterday it was a relief to wake to blue skies and quiet calm. We have the same start to the day this morning with just a chance of some rain this evening.

Black as Newgate's Knocker here. Totally overcast with a bit of wind although Ventusky shows no rain for Brittany until a light shower early evening. Here's hoping it's correct. Got away with a dry mutt walk this morning. 5 out of 5 so far.
Edit 1310hrs Ventusky wrong again. Just been out in the garden with dog & it's raining.

Beautiful here, sunny, warm and not even a light breeze. Lunch, and possibly dinner, on the terrace today.
