Mid November
 
Here in the wind swept and damp part of South Wales that overlooks
Swansea Bay it seems as if we are now in mid November.
We have had 0.8 of an inch of rain overnight and the temp is down to
41f. the wind is gusting to nearly gale force and that's despite us
having some protection from the mountain behind us.
The sound of the wind comming from the top of the mountain where there
is some forestry sounds like a realy heavy sea breaking on the shore.
It's a time to hibernate.
David.

Not in the nearest tree :-)

It's cloudy and starting to rain again here in ZH. The forecast says
it is 20C the reality is that it is 12C.

That was luxury compaed to what I went through last night: 60mph gusts
(Storm force 10)! That's only 2 steps away from hurricane force! And I have
never been in a hurricane before... Last night I got a good idea of what it
would be like. That's when it stops being exciting and starts being really
scary!!
