It's blowing a gale here in Poole too.
On another thread I mentioned that I have a little sunflower plant here which belongs to my grandaughter, they gave it to her at Brownies. It has grown to over 10ft tall! The flower started last week and just this morning the yellow petals are showing. It's tied up well but is blowing everywhere. Please don't break off, please stay put until she returns to Brownies on Thursday.

Hello to everyone
It's wild, wet and windy here, too. Did some shopping this morning and it started to rain on the way home ..... put my umbrella up and immediately felt like I was going to take off like Mary Poppins!
Stay dry and keep your feet on the ground!

Afternoon all, strong to gale force winds on the south coast here today, dreadful day. Finished glossing the paintwork in the lounge this morning, now the house stinks of paint !Not much planned for the afternoon.
Enjoy your day folks where ever you are

Re: Tempestuous Tuesday
Good morning all. Large group we have on here today. Could you please send all your rain our way? We have 20-30 brush and forest fires around the state because of our dry season. The poor fire fighters are having trouble just saving the homes. There's smoke from all those fires as far as the coast.I'm in my normal Tuesday routine at McDonald's waiting for the rest of the seniors to arrive. It's a beautiful day although we've been quite hot lately. It would seem our late Summer has arrived and is lingering.
No special plans for the day. I'm sure I'll spend some of my day outside in this sunny weather before the late afternoon heat cooks me. Have a great day all!

That's awful about the forest fires, I hope they can be brought under control soon...

Re: Tempestuous Tuesday
Looks like nasty weather on both sides of the Pond today; here at a bit after 11 am it's a chilly 16 C (61 F) ... our normal high is 30 C!! ...... so feels quite cool! Have on a long sleeved sweatshirt. In between showers now, but rain will continue thru at least Thursday thanks to the remnants of Lee, now a tropical depression.Depressing is the right word, I really dislike rain,necessary as it is. No news, all's quiet and peaceful.Stay dry, people.
