Today's Weather And General Chat

[Evening thunder]

Have had some much needed rain here recently. 12.2mm from some rain then thunderstorm(s) on Friday evening, then 12.4mm yesterday + last night from outbreaks of rain, mainly in the late evening with a 15 minute or so very heavy spell.

Currently it's 15.7C and quite breezy as it has been all day. Feeling fresher with clearer air and very good visibility, currently sunny with cumulus to the NW.

Hello,

Freakish weather here today, really freakish, anyone else witnessed what I can only describe as 'raining leaves'?

I know it sounds strange, but this is really weird, hundreds of dead sycamore leaves fell from the sky today when the wind picked up as these storm clouds approached. Not only once, but twice, it looked like it is/was snowing... yes its happening now as I type... very odd! :cc_confused:
