Rain delay

Well, we're in a rain delay at the rowing competition, just before the women's 8 crew was set to race in its heat.

While the race could continue in a downpour, it has been stopped because of lightning.

Thunderstorms are forecast for the rest of the day, so it will be interesting to see if they get the race in.
