Default Weekend Challenge 26th-29th June: THE WEATHER

This weekend's challenge will be 'The Weather'. I'm after images that depict or relate to your local weather this weekend - could be land/sea/skyscapes, people, sports, still life... anything that communicates what your weather is. Have fun, remember those umbrellas!

The challenge will be run on (GMT) time, Friday noon (12:00 hours) through to Monday noon (12:00 hours).
The Weekend Challenge will close Monday 12 noon for posting photos, to allow time for a 3 day poll.
A 3 day poll will be in place in the thread, for you to vote for the best photo for that weekends challenge, the voting will end on Thursday at noon.
The winner picks a challenge for the following weekend and starts a new thread.

1. One photo per member.
2. To be taken during that weekend. (I hope you will be honest here).
3. The photo must include exif data if possible with date and time.
4. This may seem harsh but no comments from any members to be included in the thread. This will make it harder if there is a lot of photos for the voters to go through.
5. Post your entry as an attachment directly in this thread.

To create a poll go to top of thread and in Thread tools press Add a poll to this thread. Only the starter of this thread can see this option.
In the update options box change the number 2 to how may have entered.
In each box put the title of the entered photos.
In close poll, put 3 days.
Submit new poll, that's it done. Enjoy.

Default North Sea 'Fret'

No such a summers day here in Sunderland but a sign that all will be hotter later in the week?
