It was supposed to be raining here (Montreal) today, but it didn't. In fact it was like a perfect UK summer's day! Not humid, about 23C, bright sunshine.

Aaahh.

Bright this morning, is there more to come? The noise of the rain last night was insane... haven't heard loud bounce-off-window-type rain in a long time. Taking the dog out last night was like stepping into a steam bath :eek:

more rain to come today yes. this time the end of Ike. The weather network says Windsor had the most rain. 7cm
We had some rain last night but not much, we are on a warning for today tho. Its really humid right now.

I like a nice rain storm when you can sit under a porch in the dry and watch it.

If you want some rain I'll gladly send you some. We've had about 4 weeks of decent weather all summer. Luckily people expect Ireland to be green and misty!!!! Mind you was talking to a guy from Adelaide and he was loving the rain as he'd left 42 degrees in Oz. He was the one walking round in a T shirt and everyone else was in raincoats!

I'm sat in my office in Ottawa and its just started raining again... In the car park opposite a motocycle club runs courses on Sundays, they nearly made it through the whole afternoon wihtout getting wet, right until they were putting the kit away - there was a 10 minute downpour and they got soaked! Poor guys...

This was not near Brookstreet Hotel? Saw the bike training there at lunchtime!

Picture perfect weather in the Okanagan all weekend, no clouds at all just blue skies and sunshine with highs of 29 degrees i beleive.
Made the camping and white water rafting all the more enjoyable. :p

Has it started yet down your way?? Windsor, London??

Its a big concern here in Pbro as a few years ago there was huge flooding after a downpour and the city drains couldnt cope.


My lawn has never looked as good at this time of year.
