Usually the best way to check what the weather is doing is to look out of the window.
This month all we've been able to see
through the rain streaked window panes is
water, water everywhere.
The average monthly rainfall in Normandy
during January is 70 - 74 mm.
This year we've had 117.6 mm.
But on Thursday,
just for a nanosecond,
the sun was spotted
peeking through the trees
peeking through the trees
the sky was blue
white clouds not grey
white clouds not grey
so I snapped away.
