Re: The All New Megathread
It was sunny here earlier but is clouding over now (11am). I noticed that we have been upgraded (?) from yellow wind warning to amber.
It's not so much the wind damage that concerns me (although it is a worry), it's the thought of trying to get a roofer to show up afterwards to fix it. So, if you guys in the west/south west could take some of the force out of the wind gusts. I'd appreciate it, thanks.

We're sending it, unabated, to you all in the east of Ingerlund, in the hope that it will blow away all your sins!

Re: The All New Megathread
Not sure I want the frost and blue skies back. De-icing the car so I can get to the office is no fun, and although it is a pretty mild day here today it took me a full ten minutes to get one of the last of the parsnips out of the still frozen ground this morning...
Getting breezy here too now, and a bit drizzly. Further shrub pruning abandoned for the day in favour of perusing seed catalogues instead.

Re: The All New Megathread
It's pretty rough here now. I suspect there will be a fair amount of tree debris on the roads tomorrow.

Re: The All New Megathread
Morning all. Still breezy here but the worst of the storm seems to have passed. Hope nobody has had too much damage.

Re: The All New Megathread
There are still some more gusts due over the next couple of days according to the BBC weather app at least for the Shrewsbury area

Re: The All New Megathread
I now know I need to get the ladders out at the weekend and check my gutters. Suspect lots of moss from the roof has been dislodged and clogged the downspout (it has a strainer in the top) as the rain was making a heck of a racket as it spilled over and down onto the patio. Thank flip for earplugs so I could still sleep.

Re: The All New Megathread
Morning all. We are having a spectacular sunrise this morning, the eastern sky looks like it's on fire.
