It seems hard to believe it was only one week ago today that we participated in Victoria's marathon/half-marathon/8K event by jogging 8K in the warm morning sunshine. As I write this (Sunday) there is brilliant sunshine outside (I should be out in it), but last week, Wednesday in particular was pretty nasty. I remember sitting at my desk looking out the window at about 8:30 a.m. impressed by the how dark it was outside. It seemed to have been lighter out there when I'd arrived at 7:50.
Periods of heavy rain occurred later, but I didn't realized the extent of the downpour until later that day as I reviewed Twitter. Turns out there were areas of flash flooding in Vancouver and enough hail to look as if we'd had the season's first snow already in White Rock.
