Yeah. Was bad here too, but not as bad as last Thursday. That was mental. I was scared to go out with Carrot, because when i did I felt like i was going to be blown over. Then I told myself off for being dramatic. Later, I thought the windos were going to blow in, and again berated myself for being dramatic.

Then on Friday I saw the damage to manchester on the news. People being blown of their feet, uprooted trees, a train station evacuated because the roof was torn off, and a street evacuated because the fronts of three houses were ripped off.

Similar story in parts of Yorkshire.

Round here it looked dramatic, with wheelie bins and garden furniture, roof slates and and the like scattered about, but aside from a couple of uprooted trees and a collapsed wall blocking a road, there wasn't anything major.



100 miles an hour wind. 110 in some parts of coastal Wales.
