There are times when I miss the sea and the job that went with it. But not today I think. That's some bloody hooley blowing in the Atlantic, stretching practically from Ireland to Canada. Pretty much unavoidable if you're on the North Atlantic Run.

Is that anything to do with this storm we've got here since 2am this morning ?
Horrendous wind since then and torrential rain here at the moment. Rather scary even here on land , can't imagine how bloody awful it would be out at sea in that.
( Read yesterday that we live a few minutes walk from highest spot in Worcester. No wonder the house sounded like everything was being battered off it !)

Yes that's the one. It passed to the North of the UK, but the southside of a northern hemisphere depression is usually the windiest. Hence you can see the isobars are packed more tightly.

I've not known one nearer than Uttoxeter.
I think it may have decided to escape Trentham for Doxey

Who can blame it for that

Above it, as high as I’ve ever seen birds, were 13 white swans

I need to find a bible or Koran to see what happens next

Blessed are the soothsayers and jr hartley

Maybe thirteen white swans a flying before eleven pipers piping and soon to be just seven swans a swimming if we're bringing religion into it ?
