And so many parts of USA are unused to the snow and ice they are getting.
I read somewhere (on Google ) that an inch of rain would convert to 12 of snow.
Imagine the mess we would be in if we had freezing temperatures on top of our wet stuff!

My home town got a mention on the national weather forecast this morning!

That was an interesting drive to Rennes. Very luckily just missed a tree coming down on the dual carriageway, enough room to swerve around, but didn't half make the heart jump. The car 150m ahead of me was unbelievably lucky & I daresay their heart got caught in a branch! Do be careful out there.

It was, zeldamum, made for extra vigilance, that's for sure! Two more trees down in the garden today, one right across the drive. It has to calm down soon.

Wow, that was a blow and a half!! 75mph registered off Land's End, but all calmed down a bit now and blue skies with a moderate breeze. What a difference a day makes

I heard about the first one on the news lynwlt. Must have been terrifying for everyone involved. I hope you are ok jess. Yesterday was a beautiful day. Had a 24 hour game-a-thon with the Scouts, lovely to be able to get them outdoors for a while, even if I did end up getting only 1/2 hour of sleep having woke up at 5am on Saturday. Weather back to normal wind and rain today, but not stormy thank goodness.

Certainly was a lovely day yesterday, but back to normal again Let's hope the sun shines again soon, everyone is just so much nicer when it's bright and warm!!

Thank you, zeldamum, all fine now. I'm attached to your cloud & weather, had a bit of sun earlier, now replaced by the very usual wind & rain. Thankfully the waters are receding for some that need the respite, here's hoping it starts to change fully for the better.
