It's Bucketing Down

Two days ago the weather was really mild and about 20 degrees c. not bad for the end of autumn, but then yesterday it turned really cold and the heavens opened.

It bucketed down all day and I took this photo of the jetty at Little Beach through the windscreen of the car. It wasn't the kind of day for a nice stroll along the beach.

Today is so cold but at least the rain has stopped.
It looks fabulous, wish it could come here.

We have rain today too. Sorely needed though. Nice rainy shot!
May 22nd, 2020  
Oh wow, I hope that’s not coming down our way ....although the farmers need it, I guess and the gardens could use some too
May 22nd, 2020  
yay, water is life. it's a bit cold here suddenly too!
May 22nd, 2020  
bucketed down here last night
May 22nd, 2020  
Ooh yes , it really looks wet cold and windy ! Love that phrase , which I also use - and the heavens opened !
May 22nd, 2020  
Wow, that's some good rain! We were due thunderstorms yesterday but they never arrived. However today I have woken up to strong winds and cloud cover.

May 22nd, 2020  
What a change! Great photo
May 22nd, 2020  
Nice shot!
May 22nd, 2020  
Great shot....we are the same today here on the sunny coast...dropped from 28 c to 16 c tops with rain.

Horizontal rain - cool shot!
May 22nd, 2020  
I love this!
May 22nd, 2020  
Wonderful rain image.
May 22nd, 2020  
great shot, I like the drops that travel on the windshield
May 22nd, 2020  
great use of focus and line
May 22nd, 2020  
Well captured Babs. We'll have to batten down the hatches by Sunday evening as a major storm is forecast .
May 22nd, 2020  
Great shot of the horizontal rain!
May 22nd, 2020  
Neat capture
May 22nd, 2020  
It's really coming down. I like the droplets.
May 22nd, 2020  
What a topsy turvy world we live in. Our garden here in England is desperate for rain. We’ve hardly had any for weeks. It’s supposed to be the other way round.
May 22nd, 2020  
Nice moody capture
May 22nd, 2020  
Nicely captured rainy scene
May 22nd, 2020  
Hope it makes it across the Tazzy.. watering the garde in end of may is crazy..
May 22nd, 2020  
Oh no stay in and stay dry!
May 22nd, 2020  
Oh dear well never mind it will perhaps give you rest time! You don’t very often post photos of rain!
May 22nd, 2020  
Really like this
May 22nd, 2020  
LOve it.
May 22nd, 2020  
Oooo- brrr- definitely a blustery day meant for sitting by a fire! I like the feeling that shooting through the windshield brings out.
May 22nd, 2020  
Great shot of the rain.
( you can rent some for a holiday time. )
May 22nd, 2020  
It’s not often that your pictures look like they could have been taken here, but this one does! Having said that we’ve had glorious weather for most of the last week!
May 23rd, 2020  
Definitely looks like a day to stay indoors

@ludwigsdiana Hope you get some rain soon Diana. I don't mind the rain it is the cold I can't stand. 13 degrees c at the moment and only going to get up to 17 today.

@jamibann Sorely needed here too, 80% of New South Wales has been in drought until recently and we need much more rain.

@koalagardens The rain is good, its the cold I don't like, not used to that.



@annied I heard you had thunder storms too, but we didn't get those.

@beryl Indeed Beryl, the heavens opened AND it bucketed down. I coped with that but the wind was icy. Well icy for us.

@casablanca We really need the rain, but the cold wind I could live without.

@momamo @pcoulson @cocobella @kjarn @angelar @lilh @happysnaps @pattyblue @dutchothotmailcom @louannwarren @santina @mgmurray @merrelyn @loweygrace @seattlite @kwind @susiemc @craftymeg @carolmw @julzmaioro @radiogirl @happypat @fbailey @haskar @olivetreeann @pyrrhula @inthecloud5 Thanks, we desperately need the rain, but it is the cold spell that has got to me. We don't normally have to light our woodburner fire until the evenings during late autumn and winter, but yesterday we had it lit all day. Only about 6 days during winter that happens, hopefully we only have 5 more to go. Rain is forecast for the next few days.

@carole_sandford Yes I heard about your glorious weather, don't rub it in ha ha. Spoke to my sister in the UK a couple of days ago and she said how glorious the weather was. I was rugged up like Nanook of the North.

wonderful droplets and a perfect backdrop
May 23rd, 2020  
Looks like the rain we’ve been having
May 23rd, 2020  
Very effective camera work -- I like seeing the jetty's outline through the rain drops.
May 23rd, 2020  
Love this rain scene! I learned a new phrase too-bucketing down!
