You know when it's windy when:

Christmas Eve 1999 had the roof fly off and land on the wall the
other side of the road that is behind the wall that the shed is
leaning against in the above image. The wind then was gusting to the
mid 60's mph with sustained 50 mph...

The charts look like it might get a bit breezy later on tommorow.


It's still bowing quite well here but I haven't checked the anonometer -
assuming it's working properly. I do hate it when it keeps on blowing
like this!


I don't use one of those, I just check the angle of the branches on the
weeping silver birch on the green across the road.

Today they are achieving 90 degrees quite frequently.
