Cold -6°C, but with clear skies.

It's supposed to warm a great deal this aftenoon, up to 13°C or better.

The wind's really got up here but it's actually quite warm at 6ºC. Everything's battened down so fingers crossed, we'll be OK.

This weekend I'm tired of allotment holders reporting that there is wind damage to sheds/chicken runs/greenhouses/polytunnels on neighbouring plots. Malik was better devastation that Arwen round here. Village handyman had to come around with a chain saw to clear large tree off one of the paths outside the older people's flats in the village as getting out was impossible and the housing association wasn't sending out staff on a Sunday. (All the branches were left off the path on their grass for them to clear but anything that was log worthy went with the handyman and team as just rewards to use or sell). Looks like the tree coming down also damaged the electricity supply to the flats.

It a bright & sunny 6C this morning, but add in the NW wind gusting at 35mph it feels bitter out there. Definitely an indoor day, for me

It was a bit blowy in the night but nowhere need as bad as others suffered. Cool, breezy, grey and damp this morning.

I must admit to mixed feelings when I see a tree down. Sadness the tree is gone but .. Free Fuel!

It was a knackered tree covered in ivy and with next to no root anyway John. Not the first in that area that has had to be cleared to let people in and out. It's the old story of planting unsuitable trees in the wrong place and then having a panic when a storm comes along and fells them. Lots of storms and unplanned felling up here. Keeps tree surgeons in business, the county council in removing obstructions and tax payers moaning. Of course we have the Kielder Forest as well.  Do wish people would think in advance about tree planting.

Dry and bright but chilly wind, but then I do feel the cold.  Some parts of the Island have had rain but we haven't seen any.

[comfreykid]

Wind howling like a banshee last night. Calmed down a lot this morning. Cloudy and mild , and  staying  lighter later every day !! 

[mumofstig]

Light grey sky, wet after rain and 6C. At least the wind has dropped 

[John]

Grey skies here - damp ground but not too cold at 9ºC Bit breezy but supposed to calm later today.

[wighty]

Quite windy, and a bit chilly.   Dry but bright.

[rowlandwells]

There's an absolutely beautiful, dark orange/red sunset now, tried to take a pic but the the camera's low light correction, took all the colour out  so you'll just have to believe me
