We are 450ft up and can see the Mumbles from here, and in the the last
12 hours it has been gusting to 50mph, most of the time 60mph and over
with a top so far of 75mph David


We has 1.2 inches during about an hour during the night. Lots of roads
flooded, I don't know of a stream that hasn't left it's bed.

We were just commenting that if it does freeze hard, the ground will be a
solid block of ice, it's that saturated. Can't be good for roots...
