Weather

Yesterday morning we had clear skies and sunshine. By early afternoon though you could see the skies darkening over Orihuela and hear the thunder in the distance. The heavy clouds were moving this way which meant we were in for a downpour. The wind picked up, the rain started and continued for over an hour. The road down to the town was just like a river. It was barely passable by cars.

As bad as it was though at least we didn't experience the flooding that some parts of the region suffered. In Murcia they had hailstones and in Alicante houses were flooded.

After all that rain, I'm pleased to see that the weekend should be mostly sunny again.

Saturday

Sunday

As the Spanish would say though "Llega el fin de semana y cuando pasamos el ecuador del mes de septiembre, el verano se despide hasta el año que viene. "

This weekend marks the middle of September and the end of Summer until next year.
