Storm Dave

A wild night in West Yorkshire.Today we have had, in no particular order...Sun, heavy rain, huge gusts of wind, hail, sleet and about thrirty five seconds of snow.
The sky is black and blue by turns !!

Still quite windy in SW Scotland, but bright and sunny as well.

Just south of Edinburgh here and we've just had snow - the garden is all white now. Quite a few places which had stuff on for Easter are cancelling them now - seen quite a few posts on social media to that effect.

Gusty winds overnight here in Northamptonshire. Very glad that my SIL had spotted that a fence panel was coming loose and fixed it for me. My sympathy to all those who had a broken night due to the storm and now have the clearing up to do.

Sunny, breezy and cold in Central Scotland. Hope it dries up the ground after all that rain last night left my garden drowning.

Eek! Now it's snowing hard. Storm Dave - the gift that keeps on giving!

The bins were all over and somehow the large garden waste bin upended and travelled some distance round two narrow corners, ending up outside the back door!

We're going out later, hope no trees are down en route.

Was very windy overnight here in N Cheshire. Still gusty this morning and have just had a short hail shower. Patchy sun in between so hopefully the day will improve. Quite relieved to see my fence panels are still in place this morning. I hope no one has any serious damage.

Wild and wet overnight here in Durham. Breezy this morning with intermittent rain showers.

We were going to watch cricket for a while at the county ground, Chester le Street, but have been notified that there has been overnight structural damage which could affect spectator safety. Start of play postponed until further notice.

Very windy overnight in Cambridgeshire. I left all the plants I bought yesterday in the car overnight, as I had nowhere under cover to put them and I didn't want them blowing all over the garden.

Seems quiet to hear this morning on the north west coast, but it was very windy last night. Our poor dog kept getting blown sideways as she tried to perform before bed. Pictures posted from the seafront made me glad I wasn’t out there.

Wild last night here in the Scottish Borders. I've yet to see if any trees are down.
It's quiet now thankfully and I can even see the sun. 🌞
My DD is at a wedding today in the Highlands.

Have woken up to a strangely silent world today. No wind or rain but an odd quality of light and no birds singing. Oh well. Could have been much worse.

East coast, nothing here ( hope these aren’t famous last words as I need to get to the allotment today) sounds calm outside and so far dry, fingers crossed

Seems to have quietened a little. I can’t see outside; too dark, but the wind has dropped. I am in S W Wales.
Usually with a bad storm we can hear the sea, but not at the moment.

Howling gales here and the rumbling of wheelie bins being scattered up and down the cul-de-sac. Doubtless there will be the odd kiddies trampoline blocking the road.

Typical Easter weather and there goes the church garden party.

Wild, wet and windy in coastal Somerset.

Wild and windy in Durham. I expect to see stuff overturned in the garden when it’s light.

Very windy in South Yorkshire.

Very noisy, wild and windy now in Lincs but I don't think there's been any rain at all. My cat seems very un-nerved by it all and is finding it hard to settle anywhere for more than a couple of minutes.

On the West Coast of Scotland, it is strong gusts and raining. Eerie sounds! We’re on a hill with nothing much between us and the Irish Sea, although it’s not as bad as it was earlier. Were we’re walking back from a restaurant and could just about stay on our feet.
It’s been worse in the past.

Very noisy here in South Yorkshire. I'm heading to bed to snuggle up under the covers while the storm rages outsideand I'm tucked up safe and warm...

Jolly windy and driving rain here in south Somerset about 11pm.

I can hear the wind, it's becoming very noisy but haven't looked out to see if it's raining.

I know what comes next .... the power cut!
