It is forecast for winds up to 85mph in the South over the next few days

And then SNOW!

 

Brace yourselves

Now, see, I heard the word "blizzards" but, seeing as I was still half asleep, thought I had dreamt it....

 

URGH!

[Cinnamon]

Sorry to be the bearer of sad tidings & all.......but it looks like we are in for it

 

Oh well, the shopping is done,the hens are clean & fed,the fire it lit ........BRING IT ON!!!

[Lesley]

[Cinnamon]

[Lesley]

Definite sting in the rain today.

 

If the temp drops a couple of degrees I shouldn't be at all surprised if it started to snow.

[Laura007]

its started here in nottingham, being windy that is not snow!

I just nipped out in the car this morning and I'd swear some of the rain lashing down on the windscreen was actually a bit floaty and SNOW looking. It is rather biting here as well (5 degrees), just glad the food shopping is done.

[Egluntyne]

Just had a look at the news.

 

There's been a tornado in London.

 

Massive damage to properties.

 

Several injured.

 

Blimey.

That's a bit wierd, I just went shopping to the area in Birmingham that was hit by a tornado last year!

[AnnieP]

I've got 9 of my children out digging a new school garden in this!

[Charlottechicken]

Have you got them all fastened together in some way Annie, so one doesn't blow away

[Guest]

Tied to the school gates?!

[The Dogmother]

It's horrid here guys - cold, biting wind and very heavy rain - yuck!

 

Where in London was the damage?

[Charlottechicken]

If one of them's wearing anything remotely inflatable, they could all go up!

 

A kite made of children

I can almost picture a line of small children in puffa jackets floating through the air, garden spades still in their hands!

[Laura007]

[chelsea]

I dont know how much more I can take of this weather

 

Just got over 100mph winds here the weekend. and seems like its been raining for a decade

 

no point in putting up my usual "griswalds" outdoor decorations as they'll just blow away

[Guest]

my daughter's just home from school (edge of london) - she has a letter from the hgead explaining how they all got caught in the blizzard as they walked back to the coach from swimming - several children were blown off their feet - and she's quite shaken up..

 

mind you - she has just been in to ask if she can have some chocolate - because, she says..

 

"chocolate is supposed to be quite good if you've had a shock!"

 

the london tornado was in Kensall Rise - not far from where I once lived - Kilburn... it seems to have blown the gable end clean off a corner house!
