    Default Weather question?

    What comes after two straight days of rain in Scotland?

    You might mock, but we've not had rain for about 4 days at least here, went out last night, firelighting was so easy, cloudless skies, a tiny bit of wind , perfection.

    Usually I'd agree with you but I worked in glorious sunshine in Inverness all last week, I even got sunburnt
    Monarch skied on wonderful snow on the hills at the same time.......and I came home to Lanarkshire on Friday night to the rain

    cheers,

    All this good weather is probably just 'cos the kids are back at school and everyone else is back at work

    I know I awoke from my tent on Sunday morning to a landscape covered in a dusting of snow in brilliant sunshine!

    Wait - are you implying that it doesn't rain during the week?
