batten down the hatches where in some some bad weather

That id imagine would come down to how localised power loss was
The servers will have back up for a certain amount of time as they have pretty big back up power supplies that switch in less than a second
However if you have no power your wireless router aint going to work

 

Is that, that bin.... Arrrr.... S h I t..... Brilliant.

 

buy candles just in case if your heating goes out , light the candles lol owen nw

 

I havent turned my heating on yet so wont miss that. I have lots of blankets if needed.
Just debating bringing the rabbits indoors. They are very sheltered from all wind and I have a pair and a single but only one cage so one of them would be living the bathroom!
Shame next door hasnt thought to remove thier blooming windchime! Hopefully the annoying thing will get blown away.

 

Hows everyone getting on?

Its quite mild here at the moment with just light wind and a little rain
The worst is supposed to hit tmw night

Mrs para thinks im nuts after i started filling water containers and checking the back up batteries and generally organising the off grid kit

 

Nothing here... Yet, but yes it is suppose to be tomorrow.

I think para your ok, isn't it suppose to be a down south thing?

Oops what's that I can here wind.... It's ok everyone the wife's just let rip

 

no wind or rain

where has the bad weather gone ?

 

the calm before the storm?
must admit it's mild and wind free here at the moment. hopefully the midlands will be sheilded by you outer extreme parts.

 

Im right on the edge of the south coast. Just normal wind and a little rain at the moment. Think it is supposed to build up during the day and hit overnight Sun and Monday morning.

 

Its getting very very dark now

 

We've had 29mph here so far. Sounds more but it seems not.

They reckon it will be the southern counties especially the south coast.
We have the rain now but both rain and wind are no worse than any other bad winters day so far.

 

i hope Rochester in Kent blows away then and my ex boss is flattened then blown into the Medway.

 

Nothing at all in Hertfordshire

Don't know what all the fuss is about

 

A wee bit breezy in Sheffield. I think we're just above the nasty red line though... Hang on to your hats (and roofs) all you dahn sarf ...

 

I have a 60ft lleyllandiiiii type tree in the garden which according to the wind direction would fall on next door's conservatory.
I don't have any house insurance.
Stick or twist?
Maybe take some out, see what happens then cancel it (cooling off period) if the tree stays up?
Descisions, descisions...

 

sunny hear
still think its going to be a damp squid and the news is just hyping it

 

Now we have bright blue sky amd sunshine. Wind has gone just slightly breezy now.
