Supposedly snowing for the next 24 hours then going to -8 overnight around here so it will be treacherous for a few days !

Three days of rain coming at the weekend though plus a bit warmer

I'd never thought I'd say it but it's 6c degrees here and it feels 'warm' compared to minus 6.

The Met Office has extended its amber wind alerts to cover most of the UK in a rare move ahead of Storm Isha tonight - warning of potential "danger to life" in some areas.

Storm Isha, the ninth since September, is expected to bring winds of up to 80mph, potentially causing power cuts and increased congestion as roads and bridges are likely to be shut, while rail and bus services could face delays and cancellations.

Two 12-hour amber wind warnings will be in place from 6pm on Sunday until Monday morning. One stretches across central, eastern and western England and all of Wales, only missing London and parts of the South East.

The other covers all of Scotland, northern England and Northern Ireland.

Well I have to thank last night's winds.

I had a load of washing I just hadn't got round to doing. So I did them yesterday afternoon, put them out on the washing lines and left them there all night. They were dry by 8am this morning.

It's raining now, 58 miles an hour winds due over the next 24 hours.

We had two power cuts last night/early morning. And there wasn't no storm last night.

I've just gone down the road to post a letter. It's supposed to be wild rain and winds of 50 miles an hour. No rain now but it was earlier.

Winds don't seem strong at all. Fingers crossed. But it apparently gets worse at 2am.

Some UK Internal flights
landed, in Paris
or Hungary.

Of course, many had no passports
so not permitted to leave their Hotel
until the Coach arrives for the Airport.

Yesterday

[In Scotland, an 84-year-old man was killed after a
Hyundai car was crushed by a tree on the A905,
Beancross Road in Grangemouth
at around 11.45pm last night.
Police said he was pronounced dead at the scene,
while the other occupants of the vehicle
were not injured.]



Tomorrow the Next Storm starts

We were driving home from Kerry yesterday and there was a big tree blocking the road, oddly two of the people also blocked by the tree happened to have chains saws in their cars so all the people blocked were able to clear it within 15 minutes

Really stormy weather here again last night.
Wind is still quite strong but not the gale force it was.
And of course the ruddy boiler packed up so no hot water or heating, thankfully a plumber is due this afternoon.
