Storm Watch 2013 **LIVE**

[Hungry Joe]

It's getting tasty, just had to close the bottom half of my stable door as it blew open even with my wife's left Wellington boot leaning against it. Luckily my neighbour was at hand to help me shut it and clear up the three leaves that had blown in.

Sun out in Cheshire - rather nice at the moment.

 

[dougdeep]

Warm and sunny in Seaford. As usual.

 

[Sompting_Seagull]

Just seen a crisp packet swirl about in what can only be described as a 'localised mini tornado', baton down the hatches people!

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Bugger - sun just gone behind cloud - ice age disaster.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

There was some atrocious wind on the 27 up from the Old Steine. I had to get off two stops early.

Apologies to my fellow passengers and the driver.

I've just been out to say goodbye to my shed and greenhouse.

I hope you told them that you'd pick them up from Kent in the morning.

I went down to the beach earlier...the wind is actually making the water go UP to beach! Then the wind drops and it goes back again. It keeps doing this, is it natural or a sign of impending carnage?

 

[Ravids]

It is WINDY. We are getting a TASTE of what is to COME.

 

[Muzzy]

Just come back from my allotment... RIP shed and all that sail in her. As captain I guess I should have stayed to the end but I have to work later.

 

[Doc Lynam]

Still blowing in what can only be describe as intermittent gusts broken by still or quiet air.

The ice sheet in The Arctic is starting to melt.

I wish you hadn't brought this up. I'm still trying to get over the carnage we had a couple of years ago . . . . View attachment 48006

what a senseless waste

did the poor thing ever get the chance to be luzzed before the untimely demise?

 

[Eksman]

I am gonna go and stock up on bread, water, candles and toilet roll... I'm so frightened

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

There has to be a chance the game will be called off on Monday if it pans out as expected.

Single decker buses are already operating on the 12 bus to/from Eastbourne, surprised they are running as normal between Eastbourne and Denton though - the road between Eastbourne and East Dean is hell in strong winds.

Doubt it, the worst of it will be in the morning - you cant call a match off it is a bit blowy.....especially a Brighton game !!

It's usually a problem in older stadiums if they have rickety old stands which may shed tiles/corrugated iron etc in high winds. I can clearly recall a football pitch about 50yds from the end of Selsey Bill. The local trees only grew to about 5 ft then they grew horizontally there was so much wind. Any team managed by Big Sam or Pulis would have cleaned up... well for 45 minutes at least.

 

[GreersElbow]

It's particularly windy up here in Lincoln, no cows flown by yet, however.

 

[LamieRobertson]

It's so windy out..ruining my new hair do..the one hair is waving all over the place
