Stay safe all

Anyone else see the clips on the news, of some folks in the States 'snow swimming'. 
Cheers - Phil

According to Google Snow Swimming is an actual sport

 

I wonder if they have problems with match fixing, performance enhancing drugs or corruption in the administration.

Well.....

We're back to normal !

Don't know how many inches of rain have fallen today.  (3?....4?) .....And the wind's blowing like crazy.

Odd....But I don't remember 'them' giving this one a name.....Or has it not been classified as a storm ?
Seems worse than some of those that we've had recently.

Cheers - Mr Wet-of-Wales.

Blowing a gale up here in the northwest as well.

That's a very positive way to look at it   thanks!

Techno - I just looked at your recent rainfall statistics - outrageous! Don't rust!
As to names - one of several thing I admire about you'uns is you are not so vaporous as to name
every tropical depression and snowfall! (Although 3-4" is getting close to needing a name)

Just a touch 

Bloomin' 'eck !.  .... Storm Imogen is giving us a really good slapping at the moment, here in SW Wales.
(I'm really surprised the electrics haven't been knocked out ......Yet.  )

Sounds like the windows are going to blow in at any moment....Too dark to see whether the sheep have been blown away at this time.
Can't wait to go outside and feed the chickens ! 

Cheers - Phil

batten down the hatches.

Do you have your own generator Phil

That makes nine now since the names were introduced less than three months ago.

My eldest is called Imogen! 

Does she have a stormy temper?

Very!

Well....Get her out of my fields then !

(No Mark....I haven't got a genny.....Looked at some few years ago....But they didn't seem to be much cop power wise, to make much difference. The ones I might have been able to afford then, wouldn't have done much ,apart from keeping the lights going.).....MAYBE the boiler....But the kettle would have tripped them.)

Cheers - Phil

So when the lights go you have to do a "Wee Willie Winkie" * with a candle in your nightshirt.

* I am referring to a children's nursery Rhyme not any part of Technos anatomy

No....A torch....And definitely not a nightshirt.  

And we had a split second mains flick......
So I've missed a load of posts now..... .....(At least the easy way to find them !)
