Out of the worst of it on the East side ,I think,although we have contractors on site at work and their hut is now in "flat pack" form,don't know where they'll have their tea tomorrow.

Re: Scottish/North England/Wales WAA Members
Well guy's I am in the supposedly sunny south and we have had horrendous gales this evening, it's been very windy all day but this evening it has just been mad.
My fence got blown down and my nephew has just been round to put it back up for me otherwise nero would not be able to get in the garden.
It has died down a little now so i'm keeping my fingers crossed we have a quiet night.
My shed is still standing TB so my workmen still have their tea house for the morning

Been really windy here, a few branches down, and our Car got blown all over the road a couple of times, but not as bad as they have had it up in Scotland, one gust a few miles away in Snowdonia was measured ar around 80mph, but not as bad here as we are bit lower down. Worst thats happened is our recycling bin has vanished somewhere over the fields

Re: Scottish/North England/Wales WAA Members
All okay here, windy and wet, a few trees down but nothing major thankfully.
Hoping you are all okay, especially Doogs and TB up in Scotland - we saw it on the news and it looked horrendous.
Stay safe everyone.

Much quieter here in North Wales today, bit breezy, but sunny, and dry at the moment. Also on the plus side, we were forcast to have snow today earlier in the week, but it did'nt reach here Hope your OK up there in Scotland, as LP said it looked really really bad on the news

oh no poor you. I've not seen our forecast for the week, but it won't be nearly as bad as you up there. Fingers crossed they've got it wrong Doogs and you'll all be okay.

Re: Scottish/North England/Wales WAA Members
I saw the weather report on Countryfile yesterday and that got me They have been predicting gales here tonight and tomorrow and we started the day with sunshine and calm, then at about 3pm it turned heavens black and rained a bit and now the wind is really getting up. I reckon i'm going to loose my fence again and Nero, me and the cats are going to be huddled on the sofa under a blanket to to investigate outside.
Thanks for the weather update Doogs
I reckon we are all in for a whopper. Please stay safe everyone and fingers crossed the internet connection stays up.

Re: Scottish/North England/Wales WAA Members
Batten down the hatches guys an'gals,seems it's your turn now,hope all is well.If you can't put things inside,lay them down(including bins and fence panels)saves having to find or replace them later.One of our neighbours had half their roof tiles removed,not nice.

Stay safe everyone
Good advice TB
Feel sorry for your neighbour, that isn't good/nice to lose roof tiles
