Weather forecasters...
So then, what exactly is the difference between 'squally showers', 'sharp showers' and 'showery rain'? - apart from the sequence of the letters used!! :P

Squally is fairly sudden with alot of wind, often with big blobs of water.
Sharp is very sudden and heavy but stops just as sudd Showery is lighter but but not as light as drizzle. All are intermittant. |
