A day in the weather on Graemsay
To say the weather has been "changeable" today is something of an understatement. This morning I woke to a dusting of snow on top of the Hoy Hills (above) and a strong wind blowing. Then sleet and hail showers came in across the Flow (below).
And a few minutes later brilliant sunshine
The pattern was repeated throughout the day and finally we have this glorious sunset and cloudscape and yes the wind is still blowing!

I would SO love to visit!
ReplyDeleteWe have just been experiencing similar capriciousness on Skye. One of the peculiarities of islands, I suppose. It was interesting re-visiting Skye, which we know pretty well, after our trip to Orkney: much comparing and contrasting, but none of us can decide which we prefer as both are so special.
