The Coming Storm


Just to say good luck to all Catsey peeps living in Wales, the South West and the South coast for what they tell us is coming our way tomorrow morning. Hope you all manage to stay safe and dry and the same goes for your animals. I live on the south coast too, so let's all send calming thoughts to each other!!! Doesn't look as if those further north will be at such risk, but hope everyone keeps safe, wherever you are.

Re: The Coming Storm


No trees down here, but wind is howling and rain is lashing and it's really viscious.

MIL lives on Hayling Island almost on the point so we're hoping she will be OK . . .

Re: The Coming Storm


Bit of a sleepless night for me as the wind howling kept me awake. We have blue sky here at the moment, bit breezy still - had a huge thunderclap a short while ago and hail but it's cleared up since then. More to come later evidently.

Are you OK Mags?

Re: The Coming Storm


No damage here and we're all ok, thanks Angie.

The heavy rain and gale force winds throughout the night resulted in disturbed sleep though. I always like to leave a window slightly open in the bedroom during the night and I woke about 3ish with the shivers......... the curtains were blowing madly and the window had been blown open so much that I could easily have climbed out of it
Winds of up to 80mph have been forecast for the SW today........

Batten down the hatches everyone!
