Weather

Morning all,

Tony said it all.  Heavy rain and quite a strong wind but at least it's a bit warmer.  Eldest daughters birthday today so will be paying her a visit later on.

A warmer morning today. It was a balmy 16 when I went down to start breakfast so I might try a slightly longer walk for a change.
Typically when we plan to go away as per our Norfolk trips there’s a storm due. Hopefully it won’t be too bad by Tuesday and Wednesday. It won’t be a long walk especially if it’s just to the pub if the weather isn’t too good.

9 degrees and raining and the forecast is for much of the same all week.  At least the frost and ice has gone and the temperatures do seem to be on the increase.

Regarding the temperature this morning I don’t think it was sixteen degrees outside. I read the weather thing in the workshop wrong. It was sixteen indoors.
We managed quite a decent walk this morning even though it was getting breezy. I think we have missed the worst of the storm so far because it’s coming from the SW again.

Think that's the storm hit us now - gale force wind and the rain is battering against the windows  Think I'll need to dig out the earplugs tonight.

Morning Boaby,

Rain has stopped (for now) but still quite gusty.  7 degrees at the moment.  Small fence at the side of the house looks as if it's had it but I'll get a better look later on when I get home.  At least there doesn't seem to be any chasing after wheelie bins this morning.

Take care all.

It was a damp windy walk last night but it seems to have calmed down this morning. I hope there’s none of our members effected by the storm. Being brought up in a house that flooded regularly I feel sorry for anyone affected. Nature can’t be controlled even in these modern times.

All trains were cancelled so didn't manage into the office today, working from home instead.  Wind has eased up but it's still a bit drizzly.

Couple of fences down round here but doesn't seem to be any serious damage, even the wheelie bins were upright.  One of the girls at college with my Daughter sent her a photo this morning - a tree had been uprooted and landed on her house, and it doesn't look like it's a small tree either, luckily no one was injured.

Morning Folks,

6 degrees and dry but forecast to start raining later on with gusty winds reaching 50mph later this afternoon but temp supposed to reach around 12 degrees.  Looks like all the trains are cancelled again this morning...

Take care all.

Back to a cold grey day here. As much as I thought we might manage a couple of days away management has decided the weather is just too risky to try and travel. Its going to be a long winter unless we can get out soon. I thought getting the work done on the engine meant a winter break but nature is not playing right so far.

8 degrees and dry at the moment but still quite blowy.  Wasn't as bad as Sunday though.  Not supposed to get much warmer today.

Was quite surprised yesterday when I went out for a bit yesterday.  Couple of fence panels blown down was about all for the woodwork but there were 2 brick walls that were destroyed, one being at the local Tesco car park, hopefully no one was parked beside it, and the other on a main street where the full wall had blown over onto the pavement, again, hope no one was walking by it at the time.

Take care if your out and about and take a hard hat just in case........
