Not fog, rain


I was driving through driving rain yesterday. Visibility was as if there was fog, but it was just rain. Gale-force winds (no umbrellas!) and more storm rain is predicted for today, and possibly the next few days. The rain is good news for a drought-affected country, and at least in the city thirsty gardens are getting a good drink.

  11. In Sweden we say “Det finns inget dåligt väder, bara dåliga kläder”. That is “The weather is never bad, only the clothing is bad”. But then it doesn’t rhyme – like “väder” and “kläder”.

    Anyway, this is definitely bad weather. And a good photo!
