I think that is him! Looks like his umbrella anyhow! And those black dots aren’t sand, they’re wood screws!

wow those weather conditions are really extreme. keep safe!

Hello Gentlejocks. I’m still here. Just spotted this post. Great pictures Tom. Thanks for thinking of me.

Woodscrews! That’s funny Dadoo

Strangely enough, we spent all of last week in the south-west where the weather is at its worst. When my wife booked the cottage for the first week in March I’d suggested the second week might be better weather. Am I glad I didn’t put on any pressure to change the booking!! Up here in the north-east it’s been rough but not that rough.

Ah Stewart, you could have come down under where the weather is nice and warm. Good to see all is OK.

Hey Stewart, glad all is well. I look forward to some new turnings with the windfall wood I expect you will reap.

Wow; That’s some serious waves. That must have been a heck of a storm. I hope the guy managed to keep his umbrella.

I live about 100 miles north of Stewart. There was some windfall timber when I was out driving on Saturday, and the wind has strengthened since then, so we should have plenty to choose from. I’m just hoping the trees that overshadow my workshop are going to stay upright, otherwise the wind may deliver the free timber right to the workshop roof!

David,

Hope you get some nice wood too, only not delivered to your rooftop (or through it…yikes ;^D ). I didn’t realize that you were over there with Stewart. Be careful!

I’m glad that all your report seems good. But, it looks like some wild storm.

What kind of wind speeds did you guys get?

-- Bob Vila would be so proud of you!

And a Mighty wind blew across the land… read that somewhere. Wow! What a great group of phots. You guys sure to be on the look out for downed power lines while out reaping the timber harvest. Take Care. Greg

Thanks for your thoughts; what a great community this is.

Dadoo – Forecasters this morning said gusts of up to 80mph would hit Northern Ireland as the Atlantic weather front moved eastwards and speeds would average 60mph.

Grumpy – Yes, I imagine your Penrith is more attractive than ours just now!
