We now have some very light rain, not even enough to move the leaves on the trees and there isn't a puff of wind.

It's fair dinging doon! :D
Not much chance of seeing the supermoon or the meteors tonight! :(

All we had was a lot of light rain from about 1pm till 9pm. No wind (parp), or thunder. Not too bad at all......a bit disappointed really as I love a good storm. :tup

Bit of a hooley last night and still pretty windy today. It was one of the mornings when I opened to curtains wondering if any of the trees in the wood at the bottom of our garden had blown down. But it was ok although a couple of climbers against the fence have come to grief. I am sure there will be flooding in some areas but we are on a hill, thank goodness.

Well Bertha finally arrived in the night - the power went off at some point in the early hours and I now need to get around to re-setting all the electric/digital clocks in the house. It's only when something like this happens that I realise just how many of them there are! Rain seems to have eased but it is still very windy and I haven't ventured out yet to check for damage. The strong winds last weekend brought down a very large bough that accounted for around a third of the top growth from the plum tree so hoping that the rest of it is still standing and hasn't been brought down this weekend!

Blimey apart from some slight and I do mean slight smirry rain there has been nothing here, oh and just the slightest of gentle breeze today.

Sunny today but quite windy would have been a great drying day but didn't dare risk the clothes ending up on some poor passerby's head.
