Windy Start to December

Very Windy out there at the moment Shocked

I hate it, I have a irrational fear my conservatory roof will blow off again and since then get a knot in the pits of my stomach everytime it gets like this Sad

Must be a northern thing at the moment. It's windy down here, but nothing excessive yet. I'm due to play golf tomorrow and Saturday so that could be fun - our course is a links on top of the dunes at Holywell Bay - gets interesting in a strong westerly or northerly!

United Kingdom 2010 Freelander 2 TD4_e XS Manual Lago Grey

Hi,

Its a bit of a worry, we are just 13' above sea level here, although being 5 miles from the coast (as the crow flies) should be ok, never been a record of severe flooding here, helped I guess by the large network of drainage dykes around the fields. However I have a couple of properties in town (Boston), one being close to the 'Forty foot drain', a major 'artery' in the drainage systems of the area, and if the pumping stations are overcome by this evenings high tide then we are at severe risk:( Kola is the big solid black German Shepherd, Dobbie is.......a breed you've never heard of......yet;)

It was horrendously windy indeed! Our shed roof started peeling away and I encountered various broken trees on the road today and one of those big billboards in Derby near to the meteor centre has been obliterated!
