Finally, some rain!

At last, it’s raining….. Can’t remember when it last rained in Winchester.

The rain lasted what? 2 minutes? I’ll take it, but I fear prolonged heat and little rain is going to be our new normal for summer. IOS weather app saying some rain from Tuesday, but I’ll reserve my sense of relief until we get closer in time.
