THE summer heat was briefly uninterrupted by torrential downpours across Huddersfield.
The rain lashed down yesterday teatime bringing flash floods on roads such as this one in the centre of Milnsbridge.
The downpours lasted about 15 minutes and the roads then quickly dried as the sun emerged again.
The showers were very patchy - for instance they lashed Scapegoat Hill and Outlane, but not a drop fell in Pole Moor just over a mile away.
More sunny spells are on the menu for tomorrow morning, but there will be showers in the afternoon.
It will still be warm, however, with temperatures building to 26°C (79°F) on Friday - when it will be cloudier with showers possible.
* According to a survey, people become increasingly argumentative in hot weather.
A staggering 15 million couples were expected to start blazing rows over things as simple as barbecuing and cutting the grass as they struggled to cope with the heat, says the survey by Ross Frozen Burgers.
