Help..!
They are sending out warnings of snow on high ground.
I wonder what's the Portuguese for snowplough, and how many are on standby on the Algarve?

Paul, just do what my reiver relatives did, and still do, and stock up on tinned stuff under the stairs. When a child, if my late sister and I were lucky, there would be ginger beer too. Happy memories.

No need for snow ploughs in those days.

Today was drier and brighter than anticipated, so we walked to the shops. ️🌨

 

[edina]

My Portuguese is not very good Paul, but I think they are telling you your burro has died.

Yellow warning for wind n rain in Devon till tomorrow, high of 8 degrees.

 

[Val54]

Well a brighter start than anticipated, colder now the wind has shifted to ESE but some showers possible late morning, around 7° max.

 

[Pauljenny]

All change.
W.S.W light breeze.
13 degrees.
Clear above.
Then the Fir Cone Fiddlers tell us we're going to get a downpour.
Snow..?
Who mentioned snow ?

 

[HurricaneSmith]

No-snow here. The overnight rain steadily disappeared, leaving us for the rest of the day with a moderate SW breeze, plenty of sunshine, and a 9° high. 🌨🌤

 

[edina]

We have another yellow warning for rain; this combined with the strong SE winds is causing more problems with trees and power lines.

 

[HurricaneSmith]

East Sussex will be dry and bright, with a moderate SE breeze and chilly 9° high. 🌤️

 

[Val54]

Strenghening ESE wind is moving the patchy clouds at pace this morning, clouding up later. Expecting 9° max, at least it will be dry for watching the grandkids football matches.

 

[2cv]

Dry and calm for now. Cat back on duty as well as the solar repellers. ️

 

[Pauljenny]

After a foul afternoon and night, we were told to expect 24 hours of downpour and 2 degrees real feel in a withering SW. Hooley.
So why are people walking around in shorts and tee shirts, under a clear blue sky and a persistent Northerly breeze?
They can't all be tourists. Surely?
Real feel is 5'

We were in Ballater yesterday. Teeming down with that horrible stuff between snow and sleet, very cold wind and yep, you’ve guessed it, the postie was in shorts!

 

[edina]

The wind is just a whisper now, but strengthening again tomorrow and the rain will keep falling on Devon. High of 6 degrees today.

 

[HurricaneSmith]

East Sussex will have a day of sunshine and showers, with a moderate ESE breeze and a chilly 8° high. ️🌨️

There's a rumour that SE Water might review the hosepipe ban as Arlington reservoir is about 80% full again.

 

[Val54]

No change here in Cheshire, the ESE breeze has moderated this morning, full cloud cover with occasional drizzle and around 8°.

 

[2cv]

Dry but cloudy this morning and 8 degrees.

 

[Pauljenny]

Cold
Grey Deluge.
Hibernating

 

[edina]

The rain is holding off until this afternoon in Devon. Easterly winds keeping the temperature at below degrees .

 

[marchie]

The worst of the storm appears to have passed after a night of being blown from side to side and rain that impersonate being in the Van whilst inside a car wash.

We are about 300m from the beach and the clean up from the last storm finished over the weekend; possibly just in time to start all over again with this week's clean up ...

[Val54]

Low cloud and showers today, wind back to SE and cooler at 6° max.
