What´s this wet stuff?

[alansykes]

As I was walking along towards the Camino Inglés this morning, the wet stuff that recently has only fallen on me from a shower head started coming out of the sky. And later today I had to pass a beach without going for a swim in it.

It´s just not on.

This is the first rain that has fallen on me since I was in the uplands of Soria about four weeks ago, and that was only for an hour or so, with a bit of mizzle one day in the Ebro valley a week before that, otherwise nothing.

Ahhh...Galicia...

My record: eleven weeks and two days from Arles-SDC from 2 September with two days of rain (near Burgos). Did wait out a storm in Lodeve.

I was fortunate to have 34 straight days of serious rain from LePuy to SJPdP April to May (2012) and then Snow and sleet over the Napoleon route.
It does start to seem normal.

And I probably shouldn't whinge too much as last time I rang home I was told there was a light covering of snow there and got very little sympathy when I complained about a few sharp showers.

Hi Alan,

Looking at the sky and the Webcam at O'Cebreiro, it's crystal clear:
You are looking at some form of snow

Buen Camino (and Agua Caliente for the shower...)
