Lovely Weather Costa Blanca BUT Weird Clouds
Hi All,
This last week or so has been great weather. Like a second summer. Flowers even blooming.
Yesterday was blue skies and very warm but earlier we spotted weird clouds around the Elche/Aspe area. (I think I have attached 2 pictures of a big one we saw). looks like the mothership of an alien nation. ... run run the Martians are coming !!!
Did anyone else see them or know what caused this. Weird !
(I just found this :: Nature is Wonderful see http://pic1.piczo.com/valuca/?g=25544746)

Funnily enough saw one for the first time at sunset coming from Alicante towards Villajoyosa. Looked really amazing. Nice to know others have seen them and noticed them.

Re: Lovely Weather Costa Blanca BUT Weird Clouds
We didnt get them no, hardly blew a breeze all week except at night when the winds got a bit blustery.
A mate of mine came down from your area for the day and said it was much warmer and far less windy. Also a chap on the plane who had been to torremolinos said the same.
Strange what a few miles can do to the weather.
