Ophelia Watch

[Drago]

Well, hurricane Ophelia has now been downgraded to tropical storm status, but is still packing a punch. It looks like Ireland and the west coast of Blighty and Scotland will cop it.

However, here in the countryside in Poshshire its as calm as a millpond, and already quite bright and warm.

So how are you surviving?

 

[snorri]

Fine thank you, sea as calm as a millpond, but I hear there could be a breeze later.

Opelia watch?


Is this from the Franklin Mint? Are they going to produce Ophelia souvenir plates as well?

Sweltering here in Bude, 20°C and sunny. Wind starting to get up but no worse than usual at the moment.

I think we'll be safe in Mankychester.
Hope my family in Ireland batten down the hatches though.

The day here is dull and orange. There's no doubt there's a storm on the way.

 

[AndyRM]

Gloomy in the Toon. Suspect the worst of it will be gone by the time it hits here.

I’m a survivor of the extratropical cyclone that hit the Isle of Thanet in 1987
I’ll feel their pain..

Black as anything here. The moon was covered in a strange red light earlier this morning.

That describes 50% of the women under 30 on the Wirral.

Dull and orange here too... it's slightly odd.
