Unlikely as it may seem, the United Kingdom's @metoffice.gov.uk has issued yet another weather warning for 🚨heavy rain🚨 across #Devon and #Cornwall.
The latest in a long line of recent warnings starts at 6 AM tomorrow morning and continues overnight into Thursday.
#WestDevonWx
It's been a long time since a sunny day was forecast, and we had a clear view of Dartmoor under a blue sky.

Picture of Dartmoor taken at 6 AM on May 16th 2025 from Halwill Junction in Devon. Mist is visible amongst the trees in the foreground.
Below a clear blue sky there is some mist in the dips this morning.
Highs around 20°C are forecast for West Devon today. There's going to plenty more sunshine over the weekend and the start of next week.
I'll be heading for the seaside!

It was beautifully crisp and clear when the sun rose on Saturday.
There was no sewage pollution on the #WaterFitLive map for the North #Cornwall coast, and the #surf forecast looked more than sufficient.
A trip to the coast was called for, despite the frost on the ground!

What with one thing and another I missed the #sunrise over #Dartmoor this morning.
However here's a recording of the local #starlings having a good old chinwag about how wonderful it is to have a brief interlude when it isn't raining cats & dogs.

There's hardly a cloud in the sky this afternoon, but #Dartmoor is almost invisible in the haze.
The forecast is fine today, but there is a cloud on the horizon. Possible thunderstorms tomorrow!
Given the #surf forecast, it's the ideal time to head for the seaside.
