most of Scotland's schools are closed today for the forthcoming storm. it's quite windy in the east just now and it's to get stronger as the day goes on

It's really windy here, the winds that strong its blown our concrete bird bath over, I also had to walk half way down the road this morning to fetch the recycling lol

Have also seen a few items of clothing fly past the windows lol

nearly blew me off my bike this morning, we're surrounded by trees and I hate seeing them swaying so violently.

Am really hating the wind today!

One of our recycle bins is gone and the council won't give us another unless we pay for it!

It's also been blowing the chickens off their feet and even knocked my old collie dog over!

It's pretty grim down here too. 80 mile an hour winds apparently, being on the coast we get a lot of this windy weather though. There's horizontal rain too, not at all pleasant. Oh. and my lights keep flashing too, just the kind of weather to bring on power cuts. Torts will have to come in from their vivs if we do.
