It is now very hot and sunny, but it is supposed to be raining. If you check the long range every day, its always different :lol:

It's beautifully warm and sunny here in my part of Italy today, but today I wouldn't give a damn about the weather even were it freezing. I'm just glad I'm not in the earthquake zone.

Some space cadet built it just below the Stupa in the pueblo, I only noticed it as I was looking at the sea fog.
I must drive down and have a look sometime. ;-)

You wouldn't have been able to fly your kite here, the rain was too heavy, it was torrential. Hope they got a good signal with the satellite dish the guy was on the roof for quite a while :cool:

I thought they'd more or less found everybody but the count has gone up today.

I have stopped watching the news as I don't want to see any more pictures today.

I have taken some stuff to a charity collection and now I hope it gets to the the people that need it.

Sorry to Spanish folks for going off track a minute.

No problem, we have lots of tracks on here and it is such a sad situation that needs mentioning everywhere, our thoughts go out universally. :wub:

No, not fair :mad:. Breezy and even raining again last night. Cool this morning at 9 degrees but no one has told the tourists on their Easter break, they are in their shorts and t shirts!!:eek:

Well Sharon, it was short lived, overcast today and now it's raining, only lightly luckily. Nowhere near as hot as yesterday. Didn't go to Benidorm after all, too busy spring cleaning :)

This is not fair!!! I had a driving lesson after work tonight in so called sunny Devon and my wipers were on full blast. Thunder and lightning too! I'm so looking forward to moving to sunny Spain in July.

Not so sunny Spain today!! I thought April showers meant UK only not Spain as well. Clear blue skies in the morning and clouding over with big grey clouds followed with downpours at midday for the last couple of days!!

Ten regions in Spain on alert for snow today and heavy rain.

Well, I was in Spain for two weeks, and every day was fabulous. Only two mornings were cloudy, and all the rest of the time the sun shone brilliantly. I went back as brown as anything.

Re: Sunny Spain
 
We´ve got some showers today in Ayamonte as well, Sunshine in between but still a bit cold.

Could be worse, 4 hours from here is ski resort Sierra Nevada which is closed in due to have snowfalls and 100km. winds !!

Yup, Madrid has been keeping me on my toes for 2 days. One minute it's sunny, then it's pouring, etc etc.

Have pretty much now guaranteed a downpour by putting my washing out to dry on the balcony!

Don't bother putting any washing out on the balcony today either if I was you!!:lol: Another washout.

The place we kept in Spain is at 500 meters above sea level, has been very wet and is surrounded by snow topped mountains since October last year.

Never had snow on these mountains at this time of the year.:(
