10th - Heavy

near Dunnington, Warks view map

Ominous autumn skies over the Warwickshire/Worcestershire countryside - these beautiful creamy clouds turned into a low blanket of euchy rain an hour later...the first rain we've had for many weeks (something like six dry weeks here in Gloucestershire). You can just see the first of the showers sweeping across the distant features
