Stormy Weather

We were working on Wednesday, and there were France wide storm warnings which had me slightly spooked. I don't like the thought Claudette getting caught in a hailstorm.

This meant that I spent much of the afternoon  sitting in Claudette in the car park of Chenonceau  checking the rain radar.

One thing that struck me was how the storm avoided the Cher river valley, but followed the Loire all the way.

We managed to avoid most of the rain and all of the hail, which was useful. One of Claudette's shortcomings is that her windscreen wipers don't really wipe - they flap at the rain like Bertie Wooster flapping at a wasp.
