We woke up to cloudy skies and rain. Rain!! The first rain in months. Actually it started yesterday afternoon, startling the Daughter on her way back from school. She got a bit afraid, our California girl... Well, if you haven't felt rain in your hair in months, and months is an eternity for kids, I guess it can be a bit of a weird feeling.
The whole family was all excited and dressed in long pants and socks. Because rain means it's colder. Right? Or - old habits are hard to break...
Well, actually it was cooler today - and pretty nice actually. We could keep the windows open all day! This is however the first time in 5 years it has become cooler and actually rained before the Daughter's birthday celebrations are over.W Usually it's been +25-30C and sunny and we've always been outdoors. Today we actually had to hold the birthday party indoors. Not that it still was raining in the afternoon - those rain clouds were long gone - but everything outside was sort of mushy and wet. There is a first time for everything!
Warm weather is returning on Monday - with a high around +30C. So we still have to keep those shorts available in the closets...

Yeah but Im still trying to work out why they called it a storm!!!
In England we would have called it light drizzle!
Britgirl - yeah... they have the concepts a bit wrong... we always giggle when they say there is a "freeze warning" in effect and it means it's -1C...
