The wind is getting up quite a bit and the sky is very omnibus, getting
a darker grey by the minute. It's hard to tell because the light is bad
but it may be raining on top of the fields on the horizon.

Not here as yet but as we are rather exposed on top of a hill on the
South Devon coast (550 feet up) we are quite used to breezy weather.

The '87 storm brought a number of mature trees down in the wood but at
least our neighbour has had his oaks and beeches topped a bit which is
slightly comforting as they would take out a fairly large chunk of our
living area if toppled by the forecast south westerlies.
