2024 - How's your weather today?

We have a yellow warning of rain all day today and, it hasn't stopped. Its also St Swithin's Day so, if the story is true, we have another 40 days of rain to come!! I don't believe it. Do you??

No, me neither. The local news magazine programme said St Swithin,  bishop of Winchester, wanted to be buried outside the Abbey so he could feel the rain on his grave, then over a hundred years later some bright spark brought his remains indoors to augment the new basilica and it rained thereafter for 40 days.
