BRIGHTON is seeing out summer in traditional style... torrential rain.

And what a difference a day makes.

On Saturday thousands of people crammed into Brighton beach to soak up the sun.

And today a sole woman sheltered under an umbrella as rain pounded the seashore.

The West Pier on Saturday (above) and today (below).

The Argus:

Temperatures soared up to 25C on Saturday.

But today the beaches were hit by heavy downpours.

It comes a day after the Met Office issued a weather warning for rain covering today and Tuesday.

And as autumn approaches get ready more of the same.

The "Spanish plume" that drew warm air up from the Med will also bring thunderstorms and flash flooding.
