The Dogmother Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 This is strange... my office is roughly 14' wide and has windows on one side facing SW and on the other facing NE (roughly speaking). Just now, the rain was shining in through one window, through torrential rain.... yet out of the NE window, it was clear! Very strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 It's probably the downpour that we had at 11.30 when i was gettting Ethan from playschool. I love wild weather, I was getting soaked & my hair was blowing everywhere, & all I could do was laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omletina Kyckling Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 It's turned very grey here, and is raining. The wind is very blustery and we just had a couple of minutes of hail! It's definitely weird weather! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Glorious blue sky and a rainbow here at 11.30. At 11.30 and 2 nanoseconds it was howling a gale, raining diagonal stair rods and black as night. The temperature dropped massively too. Have just been to let the girls out to play, and even though it is gloriously sunny, it is bitterly, bitterly cold. Definite spot of wind chill factor about I reckon.

Guest Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 It's been blowing a gale here since Tuesday evening, and shows no sign of let-up. The local radio station are threatening us with hail, gales and possibly some snow in the next 24 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 chookiehubbie is meant to be driving his bike up to Edinburgh tomorrow because he's selling it, but I doubt he will if the wind stays like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 The weather has been and still is horrendous here today. Torrential icy rain most of the day with gail force winds. I struggled to keep my car on the road coming home Lots of broken bits of tree branches everwhere which makes driving even more tricky. The sea is crashing over the harbour wall, luckily most of the boats have been lifted out of the harbour for the winter. Arrived home to find 2 polycarbon roof sheets from the chicken run on the street They had travelled 24 feet over the chicken run and up and over a 7 foot high shed, down the driveway and along the street Three more sections of the roof are damaged It was bin day today and I can't find the lids to the two recycling bins. They have our address on them so maybe someone will find and return them The chickens are hiding in the Eglus, and who can blame them. We are forcast snow today. I hope it comes during the night so I can't get into work tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Getting a bit worried now as Natalie's trampoline has moved about 5 foot down the garden towards the house since I got home It has sides to it which I can't get down as the bolts are too stiff If the wind gets underneath it there is going to be trouble While I am here if anyone sees a purple tubtrug can you PM me to arrange its return Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
