Meh, round 2 swings into action yet again

Hope your ok Wormster, take it easy, stay safe, awaiting sandbags myself, just starting to come level with back door, it getting worse out there and no let up in the rain for a good few hours

certainly is, lights flickering frequently now, gusts are insane

My friend just texted me and said lightning over Solent area And getting very very gusty here now, really picked up

http://www.raintoday.co.uk/ http://torro.org.uk/site/forecast.php

Winds are likely to increase with gusts of around 80mph for the south region between midnight and 3am

Absolute shed load of rain yet to come http://www.raintoday.co.uk/

A lot of roads now impassable on the Island, and being an island there are not many other routes you can take to get to your destination without coming across other flooded areas, winds have ranked up also, some beefy gusts now Stay safe guys, also stay safe if have too travel, take extra time...

Getting really wild outside now, was going to take dog for a walk, opened door and thought nah can wait Stay safe everyone please

http://torro.org.uk/site/forecast.php

Going to worse as the evening rolls in, between midnight and 3am gust expected of around 80mph

I think Culver cliff face and the Cliff face at Shanklin will experience some short of erosion, and also Bonchurch and other areas, god knows how the Military road is holding out

Wind is certainly increasing here again, and some pretty beefy gusts now too

Agreed, there has been no let up, dreading getting to work for 6am start in the morning Stay safe guys please

Would not take the Needles Weather Station to seriously, it is in a very exposed area right at top of the needles so it will pick up stronger gusts

Another squall line due to pass shortly http://www.raintoday.co.uk/

Its hammering it down outside, not seen rain like that for a while

Up there ^^^^ My back garden flooding, got about 4 mm till it comes thru into my kitchen and cant get to any sandbags
