Sideways rain

Squall line zipping across most of the north west region now...it won't last long but will pack a punch....Winds switching more of a westerly behind it?  Need something to cool these balmy temperatures down a bit.

Hoping to set off for Llandudno later this afternoon, may leave it until tea time, radar watching for now, nasty up the Orme.

The gust machine has been turned up. Trees are in danger of toppling.

I'm about to be consumed by the dark side.

[Geordiesnow]

With my house seemingly on a dip and seemingly sheltered from a SW'LY wind, it actually calm around here, yet no doubt if I go on the prom or somewhere slightly more open, it will be a different story.

Good luck!

Very severe gusts here over 70mph... Lots of damage occurring. There will likely be trees down everywhere with this

Yeah, pretty impressive stuff but the intensity of the rain again won’t help with the flooding in the valley.

[Snowmusic]

Just started to go mad here, too. More rain than wind but that’s building too 

[Day 10]

Our road is starting to flood, it NEVER floods.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen rain like this. There is ice in it too on my veluX. My waterfall is poring like the pump is on !!

It’s getting pretty serious around these parts now.

I’ve lived in this house for over 20 years and the water pouring down Todmorden Road is the worst I’ve ever seen

[severe snowstorm]

Darkening skies to the North West here. Squall line will be arriving shortly.
