Default Storm

We are in the middle of our own little hurricane. This webcam in my village doesn't do the storm justice so you will just have to take my word for it! It's not hurricane strength but not too far off it. My fruit trees are all horizontal and I don't think I have an apple left on the trees.

I will, thank you! Even my large'ish willows (one of them) has snapped in two and there's window panes out of my sheds, wheely bins in the middle of the road...just a typical Scottish [winter] gale. LOL

Well that looks impressive. Scotland can sure be a rough country. I hope the damage will not be to bad.

There's quite a bit of carnage outside in my garden and I'm really not looking forward to the view that will greet me in the morning.

I can understand that. The weather seems to be extreme everywhere lately. Here in Holland it's also bad. Although Scotland can be worse.

No, but the last two winters it was certainly cold enough for them!
