Watch Out Uk, There's Quite A Hoolie Coming Through

[DTCwordfan]

Jeez, for June, there has been quite a storm down here, rain lashing down, 40 to 50mph winds and a few good branches down, nothing blocking the drive yet or affecting the house.

In Plymouth, pasta country, there have been 3 road deaths.....50 to 60 mph winds for North Devon, Zummerset and probably in mikey country.

My sis says Jersey is now being battered?

News on where you are as Surrey is just beginning to feel it?

[Prudie]

It has been horrendous and got worse and worse as the day's gone on in Dorset. Loads of rain and near gales and everything in the garden looks battered. The cats are stir crazy this evening.

I'm not up and about but I hear the wind and rain pelting on the window here, I'm in Rep of Ire, looked at the online forecast from Met éireann, they just report it as wet and gusty and no weather alert - soft day thank God :)


Sad to read of the road deaths due to bad weather

[DTCwordfan]

the puss here couldn't get any closer to the Aga without getting in an oven, Prudie....stay safe.

Persisting down here ( West Mids ), no high winds ( yet ) though.

[Baldric]

We're ok here atm, bit of light rain earlier and a bit breezy.

[Jackdaw33]

Rather wet all day on Tyneside but no wind as yet.

Yes England...batten down those hatches...it's a wild one. And here it is, June, and I've got the heat on! I needed it earlier as I was completely soaked.
I didn't know about the deaths here, DT. I'll check the local news.

Its absolutely dreadful here in Swansea tonight, and its been little different all day. Its rain on a biblical scale !

almost enough to blow those birthday candles out, mikey? As long as Willy isn't cowering under your sofa or table.....

I'm going to a folk festival on Friday and I'm camping...in a tent..noooooo

[DTCwordfan]

I had a tree surgeon visit at 3.15 to make a quote on clearing three Chestnut branches near the aerial and an Ash with a horizontal cross branch over the drive - I was soaked!

Damp and horrid all day in Northants, but calm - until about 30 minutes ago when the mizzle turned to nasty rain and the trees started to wave around ...

[pastafreak]

I just read that, DT...very sad. Maybe the van swerved to avoid the fallen sign.

[DTCwordfan]

it could be a lifeboat job, melv......RNLI - Row Naturally - Land Inwards....

[sunny-dave]

I hope this blows itself out quickly - I'm crossing the Irish Sea on Wednesday :(

[DTCwordfan]

possibly pasta, wouldn't surprise me at all...I was out on the A30 at 2pm, just for 5 miles, and glad to get off it.

[pastafreak]

I think rain is predicted all week down here. This isn't June...its October!

[DTCwordfan]

Feels like it.....the issue being the trees weighed down by their leaves.....
