  1. Given that that was over 15 miles away it was huge! ( I know it's not exactly a storm, but I'll take anything!)
  2. Feeling cool at 6C. Rain, rain and more rain. Looking at the radar looks like a rain shield around London, though. That amused me
  3. Very windy overnight and through the morning gusting to 43 mph WSW. Calmer now. High of 10C..even hung the washing out! Pressure 1010 hPa
  4. Yes, we had sleet down here which was totally unexpected and we're a lot lower down than they are
  5. Squally shower passing overhead right now accompanied by a huge gust of wind that came out of nowhere
  6. Morning all. Rainy and cool here. 7.3 C, southerly breeze. Pressure 992 hPa
  7. Think this definitely warrants a name! http://m.met.ie/weather-warnings.aspx?t=National
  8. Vicious looking squall line visible on the radar stretching for Limerick NE wards
  9. I also think it's a great idea, particularly when we get a conveyor belt of storms, even if it's just to say to your neighbours we best repair the fence Doris mashed up! Though Ewan isn't supposed to impact on us in CS England, the fact he's on his way has spurred me to get outside and dispose of some of the debris from Thursday before it goes on another journey!
  10. Very overcast this morning with a hint of drizzle. 8.4C but feeling cooler with a brisk SW wind.. 1008 hPa and steady
  11. Bright and sunny morning, much colder than of late, but we avoided a frost here (surprise!). T 1.6 C, Winds westerly 4 mph, pressure 1012hPa and rising
  12. Still very blowy here, but worst of it seems to be over for now. Probably strongest winds since the Valentine's day storm in 2014
  13. Starting to calm down now. Strongest winds in these parts since the Valentines day storm in 2014
  14. Thought it was dying down but seems to have blown up again. 34 mph gusting to 58. Unusually strong this far inland. Dread to think what speeds they got in the NW
  15. I imagine the sick bags got put to good use on that flight!
  16. Can't say I'm a huge fan either. There's blowing cobwebs away and then there's this!
  17. Had an absolutely enormous gust just now! No idea what the speed was but given we've had several well into the 50s already, I'd say that must have touched 60 mph
  18. Apart from the squall, we've had no rain either. Wind now steady 34mph gusting to 55 mph. My road faces SW and acts like a wind tunnel being a low spot. Unsecured bins flying right, left and centre. Haven't inspected the fence yet.Winds should ease mid afternoon, so will look at the damage after that. Forgot to add pressure's been stable here for a few hours at 988hPa
  19. Thanks! I've popped into work to take the netball posts down too. As you say, just one gust is all it takes!
  20. I'm in south oxfordshire, Jo. Is it at it's peak here? Just rescued our bins and wondering if I need to weigh them down if the winds are going to strengthen!!
  21. Winds really picking up here and, of course, it has to be bin day. Like a good neighbour I've chased mine and my immediater neighbours' bin down the street after they were emptied and have lain them flat in our gardens. Unfortunately I can't do this for the whole street!Lots of flying debris already and the worst is yet to come according to the met office
  22. Reading the Doris and NW threads....sounds horrific and she hasn't peaked yet. Hope people are being sensible
