Oxfordshire newspapers have published nostalgic pictures of rain and storms in the county over the years.

Oxfordshire newspapers have published a nostalgic picture gallery of rain and storms in the county as storm season arrives. The first rainy week of October has hit Oxfordshire after a long, hot, dry summer.

The pictures in the archive show various ways people have dealt with wet weather over the years. They include shots of a cyclist on Broad Street in the rain in 2014, a prom sheltered by umbrellas, and pedestrians using umbrellas to protect themselves from storms. One person is shown with their shoes off, apparently to protect their footwear.

The gallery also features rainy events including outdoor country shows and music festivals. The newspapers suggest the pictures serve as a reminder to bring an umbrella as the rainy season approaches.
