Yes, the local news was saying the north coasts of Devon and Cornwall were bad - you’ve probably got it worse than us.
Rain most of the night here in South Yorkshire, but no wind until about two hours ago and It has blown all the rainclouds away and out comes the sun…Going to fit my walk in now while it’s fine.
You’re quite open there aren’t you
A couple of tablets and the wind is Gone…!
Click on wind gust and waves to the left then move the cursor around, Irish sea looks bad.
It’s quite calm here at the moment but the sky is turning a strange colour.
Not a soul in sight on the road and it’s looking quite eerie.
Awaiting the storm…….
@caricature , Wow, looks like all the migrants will be landing
in Scotland today ??
Donkeyman!
All my overseas friends take care. I hope Eunice is more bluster than substance.
Yes, it is a bit windy too here but not excessively so. There have been a few spots of rain when we went out with the dogs.
I hope all our members in the teeth of Storm Eunice are coping OK.
I saw one weather forecast showing a wind speed of up to 115 mph this morning in some parts of Southern Britain.
It hasn’t got up to us in North Yorkshire yet, though it is forecast to be very windy later and we are forecast some snow.
At present it is bright and Sunny but bitterly cold with a thin wind (the bitterly cold type that cuts through you rather than going round you! Brrrbrrr)
Despite the sunshine, I have managed to get drenched twice already today - we’ve only had two brief but heavy showers and I managed to get caught outside in both of them.
Once when I decided to take some garden waste to the tip whilst it was still fine and dry, before the storm arrived - I’d just arrived at the tip when the heavens opened, so I got drenched carrying my bags of garden waste from the car to the skip.
As soon as I got back in the car, the rain miraculously stopped. ggrrrr.
Then later, as there was no sign of further rain for a while, I went for a short walk before the afternoon bad weather comes - right on cue, as soon as I was crossing the stile into the fields, the heavens opened again… this time with freezing sleet. I cut my walk short and I’m now back home, warm and dry - where I shall stay for the rest of the day, whatever the weather is doing out there.
Stay safe, everyone - I’ll keep my fingers crossed for your roofs and chimneys and for all your essential services to stay OK. xx
Very windy here in the gusts. Our trees seem OK though, so far. Cloud & sun alternately, the clouds are moving very fast.
I think I’ll be okay, but I will take precautions. Once the postman has been, I might put tape over the letter box flap; I don’t want to risk sitting in a draught.
Make sure you don’t follow through before the tablets work
Best place for them Donk …more power to their engines
Tree across the road near the rugby club in Keynsham
Fence panels at bottom of garden have come apart. Very windy and rainy now.
Hardly a storm just a bit stronger wind than normal, Don’t know what all the panic is about
OO00oo … Horace Batchelor country. I haven’t heard or read Keynsham since he had adverts on Radio Luxemborg on 208 MW
The station sign-on time at dusk varied between summer and winter to allow maximum benefit to be gained from a skywave propagation at night that covered the British Isles, although reception was strongest in northern England. By restricting the service to night-time, the sales representatives were able to sell most of the available airtime both for spot commercials and for sponsored programmes. One spot commercial that became burned into the minds of every Radio Luxembourg listener was for Horace Batchelor “Infra-Draw Method” of winning money on football pools, turning the previously obscure Somerset town of Keynsham, spelt K-E-Y-N-S-H-A-M" into a household name throughout the country.
Somebody who lives at the bottom of a hill has just posted a photo on our local facebook page of an upside down shed that’s landed in his garden in the hope that the owner can be found.
