It is so cold also and snow flurrys are forcast. Off to fill some flasks with soup and tea just in case power goes off, got the torch and the camping lamps handy also. <br />DannekeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-25242666875003073672013-12-06T13:36:12.959+00:002013-12-06T13:36:12.959+00:00Terrible weather was forecast here on the Essex co...Terrible weather was forecast here on the Essex coast - some places have had flooding but not as bad as it could have been (so far).

Lots of trees and fences down in the village too. The snow didn't even lie as it was getting blown horizontally. Very icy now and more snow forecast. We too live up a hill.

I don't think I've ever seen so many. I hope it dies down before much more damage occurs. I've not been out at all today, other than to close a window in the empty bungalow (yes someone left it unlatched and the wind caught it.) and secured it. The blind had fallen down.

Over here it has started to calm down (it doesn't help that Oldham is built on top of a hill) but we have bins blown over with the contents spread out and a lot of fence panels have gone, we also had a few birdies trying to fly and got smacked into the windows - horrendous weather.<br /><br />Elaine from OldhamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-5165886528796261752013-12-05T21:26:54.393+00:002013-12-05T21:26:54.393+00:00Hope you all keep safe.

I feel sad for anyone that might get there home flooded just now. It`s horrible to experience this at any time of the year, but even more upsetting when we have Christmas just round the next corner. Let`s just hope that not too much damage gets done. What a freak weather we are experiencing now. According to reports these kind of extreme conditions will grow in frequency over the next few years. A frightening prospect for the future. Let`s hope that most people can return to undamaged homes by tomorrow.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09114653674812242486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-10922600171778490592013-12-05T20:21:14.982+00:002013-12-05T20:21:14.982+00:00I hope the impending weather threat turns out to b...I hope the impending weather threat turns out to be not so bad as forecast.
