Had a bit of everything so far today. Lightning struck the cathedral and sorting office in town this morning apparently, and the hail showers are pretty hefty when they come through. Getting a bit tired of the wind now, got to admit!

Just a few hail showers here and still blowing pretty fresh. Not expecting any snow but I always live in hope!

Seemed to get off quite lightly last night considering. One of the farm buildings round by lost their roof but other than that just wheelie bins and guttering. I woke up around 3 and it sounded pretty quiet and again around 4 and the house was shaking so I was fearing the worst! I think the highest gust was around 85mph? So pretty bad but nothing like the western isles and we've definitely felt worse, damage wise at least. Just waiting to see what tomorrow brings. Hope everyone's safe! finally decided to post after years of lurking.
