Weather stories Suddenly there were clouds in the distance

When I was younger I remember being at the back of my parents house on a lovely sunny day. Suddenly there were clouds in the distance and it looked like the weather may change. For some reason I had to walk round to the front of the house. As I did I felt spots of rain on my face, which developed into heavy rain.

I decided to go back to the back of the house to get my things and as I walked back I realised that it was only raining at the front and not at the back of the house. I was able to stand and look one way - heavy rain - the other way (only feet away) - sunny and dry. The rain stopped after a couple of minutes. It was quite bizarre.
