With the weather forecast not being too good, I hope that everyone stays safe over the next few days.

Getting very rough indeed here.

nuthing happening here at the moment in Gloucester

[bunny--boiler]

All calm here at the moment in Brum...a bit of rain earlier, nothing major.

[dazypichu]

Still pelting down here, rain has just woken me up battering against the window....have told it to shush, but it ignores me!

Going to make a cup of tea and try and get back to sleep.

Really high winds near Dover. its high tide so going to look at the sea in a while.

It's calm here at the moment but that's not say things won't change.  We've had rain overnight but nothing major.

Hope that everyone's safe and sound.

Had incredibly strong gusts of winds in West London, not continuous but when they come....

Next door but one has had a huge tree come down and taken another with it

We've all only got small back gardens so this is a massive loss and completely altered the skyline

All the birds loved the seeds from that tree too (don't know what it 'was', very fine feathery leaves with gorgeous yellow flowers in spring)

Still to take the dog out

Stay safe everyone!

Our part of West London is still like a wind tunnel. So pleased I booked a days leave way back in the summer.

i hope all my friends in england are safe and well

Blowing great gusts here in Essex, even the birds are getting blown away!

The trains aren't running on the C2C line which runs along the back of the

houses across the road, it's funny, we only ever notice them when they're

not running.  We are minus our fence at the back, well we've got it but it's

flat on the ground.  Shed roof felt has blown off.  The Dartford Crossing

bridge is closed so that'll be a traffic jam with one tunnel in each direction.

I'm taking car to garage in a minute as hubby forgot earlier when he went up

there, and feeding friend's cat.

Still very wet & windy here in  East Midlands no damage around us .

Hope all are ok in other parts of the country 🙂

Very well sheltered here anyway but certainly not a lot of problems.  couple of main roads flooded but they've been doing that since the last major roadworks and a few trees down(not unexpected in this weather). Phones not rung so none of our customers seem to have problems either. So non event for us.

Gust early this morning tip over one of daughters large container type metal bins!.

Good luck to you all if you are living in exposed or wind tunnel areas.

Bit of an anti-climax here too despite the BBC overplaying damage on the South coast. Was hoping to at least have an excuse to go into work late.

[guardpig]

Anti-climax is right, Grumpy - think they are still so scared of not forecasting extreme weather they tend to over egg the situation. Working from home has it disadvantages - up and on it at breakfast time round here!!.  Mind you t'internet will be going down soon after all that rain I'll bet and the library is shut today!.

[ilove2patch]

I don't think it was exagerated. Not here anyway. The Weymouth relief road is shut due to a landslide & trees down. It was scary last night. The wind was so noisy it was like a continuous roar. No damage personally thank goodnes but it made the tiles on the roof rattle! Still very gusty winds. I cant see out of the windows as they are covered in salt spray!
