[Night Owl]

Five 6'fence panels blown over and shattered.
Conservatory guttering along one side down.All 10 brackets snapped.

Could have been worse I suppose..


Go well.

Sorry to hear that nightowl.
Did you gain any sheds ?

 

[Beevee]

Been lucky Night Owl. No damage. Car just covered in leaves. Hope everyone else is ok.

 

[ospreywatcher]

Hope all the little UPs [and owners] survived undamaged. Believe it or not the Grampians had the same wind speeds on Sunday but nobody though tot comment about it.
Very wet here overnight but wind has died down. However between the Atlantic and my bedroom window there is little protection. The wind comes up the Clyde Estuary and over Glasgow and wham into our windows in Central Scotland.

 

[Scrubnut]

No damage here which is surprising because I can see the IOW where the 99mph wind was!

I'm hoping all is well in Devon.

 

[HannahUP]

It's been showery but mainly a sunny windy day here! Hard to believe this is all happening elsewhere in the country. Hoping everyone is okay.

No...still only got my own two. Mind you they are so full of junk I doubt they would go anywhere fast.

Go well.Edited by: Night Owl

Well, no damage here, except from a few branches down.

I am so glad,Scrubnut,that you only found cricket side screens on your graveyard walk

Could have been so much worse with Halloween coming.

Go well.

sports aeroplane crash onto the graveyard ...
700 corpse already found yet!

But the storm was topic no.1 in Germany, too (including what happened in GB and BNL) ...

 

[Scrubnut]

I see it was pretty bad in Holland and Belgium.

I had forgotten that joke....the old ones are the best

Seems a lot of us in Northern Europe found the storm bad.

Go well.

 

[Cadfael]

Hmm ...
I think the storm was mediocre (here) ...

The forrests in Westfalia / Sauerland still suffer from Cyril/Kyril, which was about 10 years ago.
This storm had more than 100 miles max. speed even in "normal areas" ...

 

[Night Owl]

I hear what you are saying Cadfael and sympathise!Here in the south of England our 1987 storm and this latest one ....for some of us...was quite bad compared to our normal seasonal weather. Of course many people in the world are far worse off than us!

Mediocre is abjective,and depends upon where you live and what is "normal" for you.

Go well.

I had a large beech and an elm tree down. Although the main trunk missed the house, the roof has about 200 broken slates and there is damage to a 16c wall that forms part of the house. At least I won't be short of firewood any time soon....

[Night Owl]

Oh dear.Sorry to hear that Nick.I came off lightly then.I hope you can get it sorted OK.

My cousin lives in Farnham...better give him a ring to see how he faired.

Go well.

 

[NickInSurrey]

I hope your cousin did not suffer any damage. I was actually away in India last week so had to rely on a builder I know to sort the immediate problem out. He did a great job with liaising with a tree surgeon and the local council and making the house watertight.

[Night Owl]

Hello Nick, glad to hear you are getting things sorted. Bit of a nightmare when you are the other side of the world!

My cousin was OK, despite having some very big trees on his boundary. Thanks.

Go well.
