Not many chippies then. Plan A al fresco, trust me. Fresh sea food en route? 

I don't want fish and chips, looking for freshly caught, Cornish fish.

[Zephyr]

Just had one hell of a gust of wind here a minute ago made the whole place shake, scared the bejesus out of me!

[knocker]

At a risk of stating the obvious perfectly foul here this morning. Slight rain, temp 13C and wind southerly 37mph gusting 60.

It's rough out there this morning! Regular 40mph gusts, 30mph average recorded.

Currently 13.2°C and dry.

[Dorsetbred]

Tad blowy out there this morning, my system is down but looking at the Harbour, we are:

Steady 42mph

Gusting 60mph

[knocker]

The wind has dropped significantly here although still moderate rain.

[Frosty hollows]

I'm as far inland as you can get and we've had sustained winds of 30 mph + for the last couple of hours. Mainly gusting high 40s but at least a couple of 50 +. Far windier than expected/ forecast. Still dry here though

Absolutely! Luckily all the garden furniture got put away when Barney visited and the bins are full, but yes wasn't expecting anything this noisy!

[knocker]

Flat calm now but still moderate rain/

[Frosty hollows]

Still no sign of it dying down. Gust of 55 mph recently

[knocker]

Regarding the slack area of wind you can se the littly system out to west

It's not slack here!

[Rich_Clements]

Just been outside that's very unpleasant, cold rain :-/

 

 

 

Plenty of tree debris on the roads this morning on my commute it was very mild though a good 4c warmer than yesterday morning.

I wish I could stream, but I only have 1Mbps upload speed, that's not quick enough to support users and myself on the internet at the same time.

What a vile day it's been, makes me dream of warm summer days and long, light evenings.

I thought you had FTTC?

[Barbel]

Torrential rain in the past 30 mins. Gales this morning have subsided but persistent heavy rain all day. River Axe flooding nr Whitford and the Coly is getting high too. Much surface water - be careful out.

No?

No fibre here yet. The most populated part of this town and all the surrounding villages have fibre, and we're not expected to get it until 2017.

 

PS: Fixed the refresh script. It should refresh the image without refreshing the whole page.

That's interesting. I live just outside a small village and we've had it since April. The priorities are a little odd.

[Mapantz]

For the past 4 days, both these apps have been showing these ppn amounts or similar, for Sunday.

Well, the rain came in a lot later than was forecasted here, but it has delivered! 19.1mm and it is still raining. It looks as there's a trough following on behind, in some cooler upper air, so some beefy shower later are a possibility.
