Awful Weather

I woke up this morning to torrential rain and the news that a huge tree had come down and is blocking Cheddar Gorge. Drove through twice yesterday! The only obstacles were goats and climbers.
It always amazes me how majestic it is, however you can see that some of it would easily come down given adverse weather.
Constant work is going on to keep it safe.

What's the weather like where you are?

Re: Awful Weather

I tried to get my dog Dolores to go outside for a wee, she hates the wet ground! She wouldn't move from the porch, I tried pushing her from behind but she went all heavy and strongly resisted. I'll have to take her out on her lead earlier than usual, she will go with her coat on!
Strange dog!

Re: Awful Weather

I've just heard that another road, the one people have been using during the roadworks (til March) that have closed the main route to Wells from Cheddar, is flooded. At this rate we'll be diverted via Weston - Super - Mare!

Re: Awful Weather

I got up at 1am for the loo and had to close the bedroom window the rain was splashing in. Got up this morning and it doesn't look any better absolutely persisting down here. Mud mud glorious mud Elsie brought back from her walk, Betty just looked at it and refused to walk, shes's not a mud and rain girlie at all.

My neighbours camilla tree/bush has fallen over, he's out there trying to prop it up with wooden stakes so hopefully it will survive.

Re: Awful Weather

I think it was wet and windy here during the night but I slept through all of it.

Re: Awful Weather

Oh we now have bright sunshine and persisting rain wind is getting up again too. Bit of a mixture really.
