  1. Yes it was rough here today! I work on a gas terminal on the Haven waterway, and am based within a portakabin "village", I have never persoanlly experienced anything like today with the wind so strong on site, they cancelled all work and all non essential staff were ordered to stay in doors for nearly 3 hours due to the high winds. The roller shutter door on our firestation was ripped apart and looks like a curtain blowing in the wind. Amazing. My office on the first floor is on a corner and the walls were literally bowing in. Unfortuently my own home station is currently quite sheltered so didnt catch the worst (read best), but even I registered 38mph gust. Woody
  2. So what do reckon, do you think theres any chance for us here in Milford Haven? or yet another wet cold period? Woody
  3. Utterly fantastic! as I pulled back the curtains the reflective glare of the sun off the two feet of snow gave everything an earily peacefull look. The blackbirds and redwings were foraging in the white stuff searching for their food, whilst the only tracks to be seen were from last night foxes. I went outside and sank into the soft snow. but then I started to get cold and I couldnt move my left foot. Sigh, then I awoke to realise the dog had got on the bed, pulled the duvet off me and was laid on my feet. Posted especially to awake the excited up in Andy and Snowmad Sam,lol Woody
  4. Dilly, I have the vantage vue, and despite the fact it is an all in one unit, it really is a very very good bit of kit. In your location it will always be a compromise, same as mine, but I found a removable scaffold pole about 15ft high, upsets no-one and gives a good balance between rain and wind. The others are correct in that you really need the data logger to go with it, BUT there are a couple of people on other forums who have built a superb alternative to the davis one, and I can speak personallywhen I say it works really well. Have a look on www.wxforum.net and look for Belfryboy. His works as a logger and interface and is a fraction of the cost. regards Woody

  20. Andyleics, you dont get much quieter then Pembrokeshire. It's 30 miles to dual carriageway and 40 to M&S. But I got used to it over the last 6 years and just couldn't go back to city life now (southampton). I just enjoy the outdoors so much more. It's just a bummer we dont get real snow in Milford. woody
