Thought about that, but needs a good circulation or air between me and the parasol - that would cook my little brain cell! :lol:

Well, that was a totally unexpected belter of a storm that hit directly above us in the middle of the night! Luckily our nocturnal son was still awake and noticed the first flashes of lightning, so was already downstairs unplugging things before it hit bigtime! So much for being out at Sparrow's first fart to get to work before the heat - it's still raining, and everything is sodden....and there's still some very angry clouds right overhead.

Another one due tonight, and more threat of hail.

At least everything is getting watered nicely and it's cooling the temperature slightly.

We had a wonderful thunderstorm yesterday evening, lightning flashing all around the bay, and our first real downpour for about 2 months during the night. It wasn't much, but it was at least something.

We had the thunder and lightning from 3am, but I’m awaiting the rain.

Just had a massive thunder/lightning storm and now it's chucking it down. Hopefully the well will be filling so that we can top up our water bins!

Two claps of thunder about 2130, less than a 1mm of rain, cloudy start to the day, seems to have been the East and South East that had the storm, so Northern Dordogne area.
