It's windy here, though nothing remarkable yet. We've had four brief power outages tonight. Though they're not apparently weather-related, they're certainly adding to the atmosphere.
-
Very still and quiet here at the moment. I still have my doubts as to whether this storm will amount to much here on the north east coast but the south and south west look to be in for a lively time.
-
Relax and enjoy your Christmas. No rain, very little wind, no snow, instead presents, turkey and hopefully a good day to be had by all.
-
The storm has been downgraded considerably. In fact, you'd be hard put to call it a storm, more like blustery weather. Of course, with the usual caveat that things may change nearer the event.
-
No complaints here. It's been a windy day with snow showers, one or two heavy, albeit nothing lying. Great xmas fun. Now on to the next one!
-
Happy birthday, Smithy -
-
So far, a bit of a non-event. Blustery but nothing out of the ordinary for here. The dustbins are vertical rather than horizontal, which is a good measure.
-
So far, no action here.
-
Ouch, BMA.
-
Welcome BMA. You're arriving at an interesting time. Yes, coastal regions will bear the brunt, but it looks as if everyone will be affected, even those of us hidden behind the Castlereagh Hills.
-
Sparky - which side? Can you put a location - however vague - in your profile? It helps everyone.
-
So far, just a normal dark, wet and windy Irish day though the wind is getting up gradually.
-
I'm thankful we're having the family do tonight as people have to disperse for xmas. Just at the moment I'm knackered - stopped for a coffee - but at least everyone will arrive and leave safely and I can enjoy the storms.
-
Nice photos, Smithy. Just as I logged off, I looked out of the window and it's snowing heavily.
-
Someone has to say it - call in Elf and Safety.
-
This will make Smithy happy - it's snowing here. Or to be more precise, it's alternating between snow and sleet. Yes,that storm's a worry. These dartboards usually downgrade but this one isn't.
-
Have a look at the charts for the run-up to xmas and start worrying!
-
Snow on the tops of the Castlereagh hills today and what might have been a short snow shower at about 6pm (difficult to see from inside a bus but it looked like snow on the windscreen). By the looks of the radar pretty well anywhere could get a shower tonight.
-
It's just started to snow wet snow, won't lie, but that bodes well for other areas.
-
The wind has gone walkabout in Belfast. I couldn't call it a nice calm evening but just a bit gusty from time to time.
-
We now have wind - It was beginning to feel like a party to which I hadn't been invited. However, there's now a satisfactory howling outside and it's not a dog.
-
What wind????? That's a good link! Tks.
-
Same here. There's practically still air.
-
I've finally swum home. On the radio, warning about high winds and surface water (as if I hadn't already found that out, lol). Drains already overflowing, and it's only just started here. There's going to be localised flooding for sure.
-
Waves of rain lashing down in Belfast. Between xmas shopping and the weather, traffic at a crawl - inching my way home on a bus. sounds dire in Cork..
