Terribly stormy here last night. I did not get much sleep. I have not checked all of our trees yet. I hope we have not lost any.
However, there was a tree in the farmers field which is directly in front of my house. In that field, until last night there was a dead tree. Sadly it is there no longer.
Why am I worried about a dead tree? Two buzzards and a kestrel used to sit on its branches and I have spent many happy hours watching them. I will really miss that tree!

Slept right through it as usual. Fence panels blown in a bit. It rained until about 8.30 this morning & now its blue skies & sunshine! |

What a difference a few hours make. It's now very breezy but warmish with bright blue cloudless skies.

Yep Steve ands I experienced that last night. Within a 20 minute period the winds had developed rapidly. It was lovely and still when we arrived at the reserve but given 20 minutes you could see something was on its way

I've just posted an image in the weather Gallery, shot at 8:00am today. It's of a view looking east towards Hengistbury head, Dorset, and at the time conditions were still poor. As I write, the worst part of the storm seems to have relented, but the winds are still with us despite developing clear spells.

Bit gusty at the moment but last night was awful.Had a job to get to sleep with alsorts flying up the road and around the gardens.Despite the double glazing I could here it whistling.When I looked out the window it was dry but the trees on the estate were leaning right over and the autumn leaves were literally speeding up the road.Beautiful blue skies today though Oh and my feeders are on the other side of the garden on the ground  | | | |
