  1. How's the wind looking this evening? I've just bagged up the last bits of our neighbour's shed roof from last week - is this more of the same or not as bad? Cheers.
  2. I'm just off round my mother's as she lives on Burnham sea front. Going to tie down anything vaguely mobile - including my mother.
  3. Any kind souls know if it's likely to avoid Burnham On Sea? I have a hospital appointment in Bridgwater at 3 and will be using public transport. Much obliged.
  4. Absolutely smashing it down in Somerset. Roads filling with water.
  5. Here in Boredom On Sea it has suddenly gone very dark and windy. Had no power for the last few hours (again) and it's not even here yet. Better crack open the prep store of candles.
  6. I just went out to try and prop up the single remaining fence panel and (excuse my old hippy ponderings) the wind feels more malevolent than yesterday. Perhaps my over active imagination was just due to the dark lol
  7. yep this is pretty grim. Hope the power doesn't go again!
  8. Power has just been restored after an hour here in Zummerzet. Barometer 996 at moment compared to 984 on friday. Strong wind, rain and gone pitch black very quickly.
  9. We had no power from 11.45am to 6pm and no mobile signal either. Landline still worked. And yes about the windows - I had mine cleaned on Tuesday and they are filthy now. Fair play to Western power for getting us back up and running so quickly. The worst damage in my locality was the neighbour who left an upstairs window slightly open which blew open and off its hinges so while they were at work they had a typhoon blasting around the house. Another reason why stay at home orders are useful. We couldn't get in to shut it for them. As events like this happen more regularly with climate change I think it shows how we should build more ties within our communities and have plans to support each other.
  10. Power just restored here in Burnham On Sea. Five out of eight fences gone in my row of terraces and lots of trees down. Very thankful this morning missed high tide!

  11. Gale force gusts hitting here in Somerset now and the skies are darkening.
