It was a bright and sunny start to the day with just a few white fluffy clouds. It was +7 this morning but there was quite a cool breeze. By lunchtime the clouds had got heavier and it looked as though a storm was coming in over the mountains. By around 2pm it went quite dark and it began to rain, hailstone and it was thundering and lightening. The storm only lasted around 30 minutes and it tried to brighten up a bit. By around 3.30pm the clouds thickened again and it continued to rain. It started to brighten up again at around 5pm, the clouds cleared and the sun came out.
