Why yes, I am a Smart ASS
this time of year we hit that once a week to every other week.
Either Scattered tornados or straight line winds. For the past two tuesdays, we have had straight lines of 70 mph AND tornados. Just part of living in the South. And I would not relocate for anything (ok. that might be an exhageration, but it better be pretty damn good). Oh,Friday night we had straight lines in the mild 40 pmh range and the woke up to snow Sat morning. thats in between days of a sunny 70 degrees.

Made me laugh out loud that mate thanks.
We are just not used to this weather and are getting more of it all the time. Flood warnings again 20 miles away. 05.00 here and woken by the winds. The news says it will be at its worst at rush hour, I have a 30 mile drive in the van just about then.

Just remember, even if you're only strolling down to the local for a quick pint, ...ATGATT!

I would, if I knew what the **** ATGATT was
Wales and the South coast caught the worst of it. We had wind and rain but nothing out of the ordinary.

You are a bit further south than us Mac. We have had nothing exceptional here in Manchester, more to come though they are saying.

Find a good pub to hold up in, hopefully they will have snacks. If not, a few good stouts should provide the necessary nourishment

Thanks feejer222 for the links.
I still have the "beeb" links for weather and stuff on the "puter", and also glad to inform you that all is well with my family!
How was "Manch" during the storms?

Glad to hear your folks are OK Taff, spent many happy holidays in Wales and Anglesey when growing up. Have you seen the race circuit they have built on Anglesey now? World class if you ask me. I am hoping they get a BSB round there soon. Reminds me of Philip Island.
The storm hit Manchester last night for the first time. Its howled and rained all night and still is (7am Wed). It's due to last all day. A good day to stay indoors I reckon.
Cheers, Graham.
