Skye Summer...???

Here on Skye, we take every opportunity to rejoice in wonderful weather. Let's be honest - we really don't get wonderful weather very often (unless you are in the very tiny minority of folk who rejoice in horizontal drizzle...)

The last few day's weather has been MY kind of wonderful. Calm winds, overnight light frosts, and daytime temperatures reaching 17C. The sky has been blue, streaked with thin high cloud, with lots of dots and dashes of slightly thicker cloud at lower levels. The sun has actually felt warm!

We haven't had much of a summer for the last three or four years, so we are 'fingers crossed' that the weather we are experiencing now will not be all we will get for 2017, but will be a pre-cursor of a proper Skye summer to come...
