South East England & East Anglia Regional Weather Discussion 15/02/14
Ruthie replied to Snowangel-MK's topic in Regional
Morning all. Didn't go to bed till gone 2am, as was so noisey. Was amazing tracking the flights on the app, one BA from Oslo tried to go into heathrow for ages, ended up at Leeds around 1am. I didn't live in London during the 87 storm, but know people who did who said it was the most incredible constant noise and that nothing has come close since. I remember the 2000 storm, trains were all cancelled at Waterloo. Being from s Wales, we got a lot of stormy weather, but certainly not as much as this. Last night has rearranged the garden, but atleast roof is intact and not flooded, unlike the poor souls down the road in egham, Staines. It's gusty this morning. Currently dry although cloud creeping in from west.- 834 replies

One helluva gust just as a jet going over to heathrow. Know they are big things, but that must be getting buffeted. Areas of this bungalow creaking that haven't creaked in the 8years I've been here!! Very dry and mild.- 1,411 replies

The fox just appeared and was very wary of the swinging bird feeders! Ears pinned back and sensitive to all things moving about. It's fairly calm inbetween the gusts. Stopped raining and isn't cold.- 1,411 replies

Fairly windy on and off here, just stuck head out of door, no sign of foxes or badgers. Not going out to see the band now, going to stay in with the ipad, wine and some party food !! Oh and the flight app is amazing, I love being able to tell which planes are going over every 90secs to heathrow, and their holding pattern sometimes is interesting. Noticed a tree in field sort of had its bark stripped, if that's possible. It was sort of beige colour. Normally a dark brown.- 1,411 replies

Evening! It's raining here,,no really. Feels incredibly mild though. Unless it's just me! Opened patio door earlier to put Foxie out some dinner scraps, and all I could hear were ducks! They must have popped up from the trout lake at bottom of the field. Bless em.- 1,255 replies

Morning all, just, from sunny brentford. The birds have nearly eaten all the nuts I put out yesterday, noisey green parrots mainly. And squirrels. Long tail tits have been hoovering up bits on floor. Haven't seen the chaffinch boys n girls for a week or so, nor the dunnock. Looks nice out there, shame have the lurgy, feel awful. Know some of you have also had it. Have a jolly good Sunday !!- 1,255 replies

I had put out a bit of bread and butter for Foxie, she's been visiting our garden for four years now, since a cub. But she wasn't around, so badger popped in and took the bread. Don't see him often. Was a few badger cubs a few years back. So cute,,but just the one big one visits now, every few months. Foxie visits most evenings, she's beautiful with big bushy tail, and good fur,,no mange. Have watched the foxies pounce on mice here, and we had awful problem with them in attic, so good to have the foxes helping keep population down!Funny, never seen a badger or fox or squirrel until I had moved to London from Wales!! Fairly chilly now, just opened door to check. Fine drizzle in air with the fog.- 1,255 replies
