I went out and did a 20 mile circuit this morning, sunshine pretty well all the way round. Looking at the sky it seemed to be black everywhere except where I was. There was clearly a lot of water about, cars had wipers going, and the gutters were awash, yet the sun was shining where I went. I am now home and sitting here and it is throwing it down out there. the neighbours roof is white from hail. Someone up there in the sky must have taken pity on me when I was out.
