It was only raining lightly

I don't know how long the rain lasted last night. We tried to go downstairs for a walk in the early evening but had to abandon the idea because of the rain. It was very light rain and we didn't even know till we were downstairs.

The next morning there were pools of water every where. This is our second experience of what to expect, and so were more prepared going to work in the morning. The roads were uncannily quiet, probably because most people have taken advantage of the long holidays to go away from work.
