Humidity is Rising, Barometre getting low
To look at this shot you would never believe that a mere 5 hours ago the rain was bouncing of the street and springing up about a foot in the air.
The cycle path was, in places, a foot deep in water. I know this because my poor feet had to pedal my bike through those trenches.
When I got up, dressed in my "biking" gear my husband looked at me and said "You cannot be serious". (Exactly like John McInroe). I grinned and said, "it's stopping and it's going to be sunny later".
I was right. It was sunny later, but it didn't stop the whole way in. I can remember the last time I was that wet. It was after a beach party which ended amazingly with a massive thunderstorm that soaked us all to the skin. Walking home at 3 am in the morning, every article of clothing (not that I was wearing that much to be honest) dripping wet.
IT was the same this morning. D. drove past me as I made the final approach. She almost skidded across the road in shock at seeing me cycling in the torrents of rain. I got into the office, and squelched to my seat. I got up to the shower and stood in colder water (the rain was quite warm) to cool down a bit.
Then I hung my soaking clothes, including shoes which were loosing water all over the floor.
About 1130, the sun was out and I decided that outside might be a better bet for drying them. And I was right - See my tee-shirt and leggings blowing on the handlebars.
My socks and my gloves are perched on the holder at the back.
Yay for Scottish Weather.
A bit of excitement, and near drowning, followed by sun tan session.
