Storm Darragh

[Smokin Joe]

Hits Pembrokeshire in the hours, winds gusting to ninety forecast.
I don't mind admitting I'm crapping myself.

I've just moved my car away from underneath the giant oak tree where I park.
It looks like it's going to be a wild one in the coming hours

If its the middle of the night I'll probably sleep right through it. 😂

For those not in the affected area, here's the alert we got on our phones earlier this evening

The whole country is due to be affected, ranging from unpleasant inconvenience where I am to nasty murder deathkill slaughter annihilation insanity madness in other areas.

Fingers crossed my brethren and brethwomen in CC land survive unscathed.

Stay safe, just a yellow wind warning here. Locally some flooding expected.

The cats just come in looking like a drowned rat.
Hopefully he will settle for the night and not want to go back out

I thought what the bloody hell is that sound? Followed by, what is making it?

It's supposed to hit us in mid Wales in the morning. Fingers crossed it won't be too bad. Being in the foothills of the Cambrian mountains, we tend to be a bit sheltered from the worst of the weather.

Ah, Coldplay on the radio again?

Sounding like a drowned cat?

Sounding like a drowned cat?

They'd have to improve somewhat to perform at that level.

Our cat has done that twice tonight

I'm hoping that Darragh does me a good turn and snaps the cherry tree that, despite being dead, ate the bar from my chainsaw the other day. There's only a couple of inches of wood that's still keeping a nearly 30-foot tall tree upright.

Knowing my luck though, the damn thing won't fall where I was intending to drop it...

Regardless, I'll most likely have more lumberjilling to do anyway. I'm still clearing up after dear Bertie...

A red warning here between 11pm to 3am tomorrow. Very heavy rain earlier but it all seems calm at the moment.

I decided against a planned night out as I didn't fancy walking home if it's as bad as forecast.

I believe there was flooding elsewhere in the town, probably heavy rain at high tide.
