The second set seem rather forboding . when I drove up jubalie way about 7 45 am this morning the sky over the sea was amazing deep dark blue with the most amazing cloud formations , I really wish I had a camera on me

Our skies are phenomenal. I took my daughters dog for a walk by the sea after 10pm last night and the sky was breathtaking. And I love the fact that I can watch the changing sky over the castle from my front garden. How magical is that?!

The M20 was flooded about 2pm today , hail , thunder and torrential rain , the sky was as black as pitch with that peculiar "electric" quality to the light . We where lucky enough to miss an exceptonally nasty crash , when a car aquaplaned across the carriageway the weather is seriously wierd this week

We arent seeing the pictures there David. The codes are there but 2 things..
either you deleted the codes from the upload box before signing out or the pictures were too big...up to 2MB only.
I always resize mine to 600 pixels wide and it always works. Have another go as we would all like to see them...always good to see stunning sunsets.
Glad all okay Sarah..yes we had some hailstones yesterday here on the seafront. Blimey we have had everything this Spring!

Absolutely clear skies at present, Venus bright in the north west, Jupiter near the horizon slightly to the right and Mars overhead and slightly south looking typically red.
