hunchy Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Feck London pray for me. Live just outside Peterborough and part of my fence blew down last night. Just come out for a smoke and it the wind is picking up again only with more rain this time. If you don't hear from me in the next 12 hours can you organise a relief party. Joking aside so far its nothing worse than I'm used to from west Kilbride. Nothing special just a normal run of the mill winter storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunchy Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Couldn't say for sure fringo but to me storm Imogen feels like a normal storm. As I said used to it from growing up on the Clyde coast so to me it is nothing special. No doubt the media will make it sound like the apocalypse though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flora MaDonald Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 According to the lovely Carol Kirkwood, the highest wind-speed today in Southern England is 65mph. However, the real tragedy is London being bombarded with 55mph. I'm currently looking out some old clothes and provisions to send down.

fringo Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 It has been a freakish 6-9 months of weather in the UK though. The regular rain and strong winds of the last few months and one of the mildest winters ever. Also one of the wettest and crappiest spring and summer last year.

Brummie Hibs Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 My 9.09 train out of Hertford was cancelled this morning due to plastic sheeting being wrapped around the overhead cables. I'd just bought a tea from the kiosk as well!! Grrr... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to know you guys up north are thinking about us, it's tough down here but we're trying to make do. The baker has just managed to get here but sadly his croissants were a bit cold and limp so we had to do without, one of our bins has blown over and the council can't get here till 2pm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 It has been a freakish 6-9 months of weather in the UK though. The regular rain and strong winds of the last few months and one of the mildest winters ever. Also one of the wettest and crappiest spring and summer last year. Yeah, we moved house in June, and since July our back garden has been soaked. I can't really tell if there's a drainage problem, or if it's just never had a chance to properly dry out. I suspect it's a bit of both. One of the reasons we liked the house was it had a good garden for our wee boy to play in, but as we've been keeping him off the grass 90% of the time, he just thinks he's not supposed to go on the grass now. 1st world problems. I occasionally wonder where the shed from our old house landed, as it was one strong gust from being bonfire wood when we moved out. I am finding the constant wet weather quite depressing, I like going outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Man Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 (edited) It's Mary. There's a list here: Took me ages to read that list Deecie.My 2 rabbits are absolutely scunnered with the weather. Cleaned out the shed this morning and both of them ran out and straight in again and Hoppity bit me on the way past. It's nice she thinks I'm God and responsible for the weather but the germolene was sore and took away some of the happiness.
