Wind, what wind?

 

Just a sudden rise in temp this morning and flash floods from melt water. Highest ever recorded level on R Swale.

this weather is vile! i wouldn't want my kid going and playing in the woods in it, and its not as bad here as it is in elsewhere, i heard on radio 4 today that there were wind speeds recorded over 120mph, i know for a fact i take off at 100 (i found out recently!) so i wouldnt want my kids out in it for sure!

 

i think there will be a fair amount of call out work in the coming few days but there are too many of us to get excited about a repeat of '87 we'd mop those trees up in no time! my neighbour has a branch on their car, but they are orrible people so i'll let them find it!

 

luftwaffe.... were your teachers particularly nasty to you or are you this orrible to everyone!?

Highest wind speed recorded (so far) 135 mph in Cairngorm National Park. Couldn't beleive it when i heard the police telling people not to travel unless it is an emergency because of the wind.
