The skies have been dark all day with the air hanging heavy, it has felt as if something is going to pop since noon. By two o’clock the humidity was palpable, you could smell it in the air. The rains hiding in the clouds were announcing their arrival while still teasing about what time I should expect the deluge to happen.
What was amusing is that for all the talk about how cool spring has been, the first day of heat and humidity didn’t bring any joy, rather, at the post office where our townspeople congregate to discuss the weather, there was quite a bit of complaining.
I love these pictures, you could see the turmoil within and I could imagine the thunder and lightening being fabricated and churned about up there like in Greek mythology. Zeus has hidden in more than his fair share of thunder clouds hiding from Hera. Perhaps Zeus is hiding here in Blandford, good luck Zeus hiding away from Hera.

Your neighbours sound British – all we ever do is complain about the weather.
But, admittedly, yesterday was….. WARM!
I feel for you in Scotland, I know that northern France is chilled as well. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that warm weather will make its way to you at some point!:)
It was hail this morning for the school run!
Although given the weather in the States these last few days – we are thankful that we rarely get extreme weather.
I’ve been hit by a hailstone or two and they can hurt! I hope that whichever weather pattern that is stuck in your neck of the woods get unstuck and soon!
My feelings on the weather is that it could be worse. We should be thankful for what we have, no mudslides, no wildfires, no earthquakes(not normally), no tornadoes (rarely) My neighbors aren’t often happy.
Yes, we are wet most of the time, but mild. Though we do get the occasional earthquake.
I do realize that being wet most of the time is dreary after a while but so is being hot and sweaty. I suppose some complaining is called for, in limited doses
Of course. Why else be human? 🙂
