Sue H Posts: 8173 Joined: 29th Jun 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 12:29 on 28th October 2013 So glad to hear the reports, and that they are not so bad. We are also forecast stormy weather, with high winds and snow in the valley. Hubby and I are in the big city ( Reno) celebrating our 29th wedding Anniversay. Hoping for the roads to be clear going home (160 miles). |

Biggest issue of the day weather wise-------------------------------- Wheelie Bins !! It was collection day here today and most had been blown over ( had to drive round one- managed to pick it up as I did my walk to the shop ) Trust everyone else had no issues. Have a great Anniversary Sue !! |
Paul Hilton  Posts: 2605 Joined: 21st Nov 2004 Location: UK | Posted at 03:37 on 29th October 2013 A trip here through West Berkshire at 0630 on the morning of the storm. The wind still blowing strongly and gusting as I headed into Newbury. The barometer was reading 982 mb's, but by 9AM had gone up to 992, then over 1000 by noon as the low pressure area moved east quite quickly, as storms go. Hope you had a lovely anniverary too, Sue. |
| Sue H Posts: 8173 Joined: 29th Jun 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 22:17 on 29th October 2013 Snow. Lots of it. Well, it depends what you call lots. Enough to make the world look white. Driving home the two and a half hours from the big city, usually a barren, brown wilderness, today covered in white and looking so very pretty. The sky was pretty too, varying from grey to bright white and when the clouds appeared, beautiful shapes. Luckily it didn't snow hard on the journey and it was a very pleasant trip. |
