Well, its cloudy and sunny here now, has been for the last half hour or so. Winds calmed down a lot too.

Womder if this is the calm before the next storm :o))

I either slept through it or it hasnt hit as predicted. My wall is still standing and garden is as I left it. Looking at trees wind is no higher than normal and we have patches of blue sky.

Raining & very windy here in Harlow

Not as bad as I feared, thought Id hear it howling all night but diddnt.But the wind has picked up from 6am this morning though

Very blustery in Norwich right now, but this is only the front that's bringing the storms, the actual storm itself is apparently starting to hit the west about now.

Have a good day everyone and stay safe.

Maybe spoke to soon....it's very windy, raining and i've been awake for about the last hour

Take care everyone

Nothing happening by me

Its all very calm and still here at the moment - was just a test run earlier I think the whole thing didnt last more than ten minutes.

I will be listening to my local radio in the morning incase of school closures,

Getting breezy here & I was chucked off of my broadband earlier as well

and here comes the rain ...............

There is a calm before the storm feeling in Cumbria, its very still, Doesnt this hasppen before the low pressure descends?

Here she comes - its gone v dark very quickly - we just had some hail but thats passed but no blue sky to be seen I have had to switch my spotlight on.

Its very quiet and still outside - I am looking out into my garden ...... but dark enough in just a few mins my solar lights have come on.

Just has the mother of all hail storms here in harlow !

Its gone really dark here and rain started

Very strange here!
One minute it's black, the next the sun is beaming down!
No wind though:0)
The biggest storm is due to Spurs thrashing us at the moment:0((

Is it just anotherSTORM in a teacup?


Or will it BLOW over

Take a look at this..

Well its clouded right over here in harlow, and we have had a couple of light short showers.

Dreading tomorrow, if its too awful & we get warned to stay indoors Im going to break all my rules 7 keep kyle home from school (He has a 30-40 min walk to school)

Hopefully I wont need to go to that drastic length.

Ever since Michael Fish embarrassed himself in October 87, the Beeb don't wanna get caught out again.

Anything more than a puff of wind, its a gale warning. Any more than an hour of rain, a flood warning!

I had to travel home from school by train over a viaduct during the 87 storm with the train swaying from side to side. After that, I'm not concerned about much!!!!

-S-

****UPDATE just looked at the other storm thread which says exactly what I just did :-)

Blue sky the other side of Bristol and bright skies, but the clouds are rolling in. I think I need to stop the h***ew**k and nip down to Asda and get things in so there is food when he arrives home.

Then out to Garden and see what can be put in the shed and what can be tied down.

I lost a 6+ foot patio heater last weekend and the wind wasnt as bad as its planned this weekend.

Sunny here in Mid Wales 40 miles from the coast
