15 Degrees? Winter Over.

Westmorland Gazette POLICE are warning people not to travel unless absolutely necessary and thousands of homes have been left without power as Storm Erik continues to lash South Cumbria. The first 'named' storm of 2019 has battered the area overnight with the wind and rain set to continue through most of the morning. Trees and powerlines have been brought down with almost 7,000 homes in Grange-over-Sands, Kent’s Bank, Allithwaite, Kendal, Ravenglass and Ulverston left without power. Winds have gusted to 55mph with some the chance of gusts hitting 70mph in coastal areas.

House well and truly out at sea. Some huge gusts from over the fields as we are flat and exposed.

We are pretty much devoid of snow in our region - but we make up for it if you like to fly a kite.
