It's not an Indian summer either 😛
Monsoon
Really it Pissed down in East London first thing this morning
Absolutely gorgeous up here and it would have been a perfect day riding in the sun but I have a cold and am v run down 🙁
"Indian Summer" is an expression that dates from the days of wagon trains across North America. Dry sunny days in autumn would mean cold cloud free nights. That would cause fog to form towards daybreak, and the indians would attack the wagon trains at dawn under cover of the fog.
Yeah, it was terrible down south today too 😆

Careful Ziggy - there's one hiding behind the 3rd tree on the left
Well, down here in South Devon it's been spectacularly lovely, up until around 3 this afternoon when it started to cloud up and the wind got up, the waves are currently smashing against the beach across the road from the pub I'm staying at. And it's a narrow road, I could throw stones into the sea from my room at high tide. Should be much nicer tomorrow, though.
I thought that the term "Indian Summer" came from the North American pioneer days and referred to the fact that the season could change for the worse at any moment and therefore could not be trusted.

This was taken this afternoon around 1.30-ish, between Start Point and East Prawl, near Lannacombe Bay.

This was taken at Hallsands, the other side of Start Point, around 3.00, on my way back to Beesands where I'm staying.
Dry this side of the Alps....
^^^^
Looks cloudy and nothing special in that second shot 😆
The first one is nice though.
Just walked back from the pub in a t-shirt - not the slightest bit cold tonight!
I've known of colder nights in July.
