Isle of Islay Scotland http://isleofislay.posterous.com Information, blogs and images from the Scottish Isle of Islay posterous.com Thu, 13 May 2010 11:52:37 -0700 Change of Islay Weather http://isleofislay.posterous.com/change-of-islay-weather http://isleofislay.posterous.com/change-of-islay-weather

The weather front that came in from the west yesterday evening brought some rain today although I think it wasn’t enough to make up for the shortages. As you can see from the images the Paps were invisible. The rain left the island around two and at the moment of writing I can see some blue patches in the sky in the west, the Paps of Jura are visible again and to the east the sun is shining on the mainland. Perhaps a nice sunset? More about that tomorrow.

Wed, 12 May 2010 10:27:30 -0700 Changing Weather and Fluffy Clouds http://isleofislay.posterous.com/changing-weather-and-fluffy-clouds http://isleofislay.posterous.com/changing-weather-and-fluffy-clouds

The story of today is mostly about the weather. A weather front is moving in from the west which will likely, and for some hopefully, bring some rain which is much needed by the farmers and distilleries after the long dry spell. The images show how dry the lands are at the moment and there are a couple of images from the big and fluffy clouds over Loch Indaal and the Paps of Jura today.

Wed, 05 May 2010 10:51:52 -0700 Low Clouds on Islay at Loch Indaal and Kilchoman http://isleofislay.posterous.com/low-clouds-on-islay-at-loch-indaal-and-kilcho http://isleofislay.posterous.com/low-clouds-on-islay-at-loch-indaal-and-kilcho

It was a mixed day today with sunny spells and sometimes dramatic low clouds and mist, especially near the coastal areas. A good opportunity for some really nice pictures. All of the images I have tonight are taken at or near Loch Indaal and I particularly like the farm buildings at the head of loch Indaal seen from Bowmore and of course the image of Kilchoman Church. Oh and the Paps of Jura were completely invisible today and at times it was hard to see Jura at all.
