Unseasonably stormy

Rain again overnight but a lovely start by breakfast-time will clear blue skies and plenty of sun.  The bad weather was never too far away though, by mid-morning skies had clouded over, then rain arrived by lunch-time.  By evening, some unseasonably heavy rain accompanied by very strong winds battered Oakdale - more like November than June!
