Wind N Rain!!

[grandpajoe]

N W Lancashire 30mile north of Blackpool. We live on elevated position next to Morecambe Bay and the really scary stuff has just got to our house. Yes it's scary all right. How is it with you???

[grandpajoe]

Oh well don't answer then!! At least it's taking me mind off this effing tooth ache!

Bolton, Lancs - Gusts of 80 mph - prevailing sound of what seems like a train roaring inches away mixed with sirens.

Maybe all the other ABers are hiding under their beds.
A lot of people in our street put the bins out today for emptying tomorrow. The wind has emptied most of them and they're scattered all along the street. Luckly it's the blue bin this week, papers and plastic

Has been howling in Bucks this afternoon. Bit quieter now though...

[jazzyjen]

In my area of Bolton I cant hear any sirens. The wind is pretty scary. Watching fence panels falling apart and hoping the trees can stand it. Decided not to put the bin round the front until the morning when it hopefully will be a bit calmer.

Have to put our bins out by 6am. If mine blow away, tough!
Only carrying out orders, sir.

NW Lancs 'ere, windy a lot, raining, a lot, no different, we're used to it, lol.

Our bins should be out by 7am officially but they dont usually arrive until nearly lunchtime. However we are law abiding citizens so try to get them out in time. Not a problem for us as Hubby is up early for work. He works as a lollipop man so was probably doing a pretty good impression of Mary Poppins this afternoon.

[grandpajoe]

Yes BOO we are but nowt like this!!! Well not in my 60 plus years. Tooth ache's bloody awful BTW

[giveup]

Not bad here at the moment (East Devon). Forecast not good for Blackpool area. Keep safe.

Half an hour since I did centre of Manchester up the M61 to lands east of Preston (there be dragons).
Foul, utterly terrible weather and now the house is being battered. No floods though - too high up.

It's absolutely horrendous here - North West Wales. Britannia bridge was closed to high sided vehicles, yet some chose to ignore the warnings, and a lorry turned over, and so caused a massive problem. My daughter in law and lots of other poor drivers took about 4 hours to get about 15 miles. The driver has now been arrested. I think he's lucky the police got to him before my daughter in law did!

Awful on The Isle of Wight. I believe we are sinking.

You have my sympathy Grandpa.J, nowt as bad as toothache, been or gone to the dentist with it?

South London - started out nice and sunny then we had a heavy downpour around lunchtime. Sun came out again when I was walking to the nursery and luckily got home in time before we had one crack of thunder and another downpour. Very windy as well.

Rain this morning, sunshine but cold this afternoon. Tonight we are battered by the howling winds. I turned the TV off because the wind is so noisy. (West Yorkshire)
