Raining
With an audible sigh of relief, rain has finally returned to Worcestershire. Like many other parts of the country we have had weeks of soaring temperatures and blazing sunshine. The allotment was struggling, the grass had turned brown, the Teme had dried up, and even the Severn had turned into a sluggish ooze you could practically walk across.
Finally, the wind picked up, the clouds built and down came the rain.
This is the Defford Radio Telescope looking up at the storm, lit up by low sun that momentarily peeped through a slot in the cloud.
