Hope you're all safe and sound with the storm that is approaching!

She’s starting to put some effort into her arrival. May not get a lot of sleep tonight.

The wind and rain are lashing, I'm very pleased we've still got leccy and we're safe and warm inside.

We survived the night with no trauma that I can see from the window. We still have electric so I'm thankful for that, although we were prepared for the worst.

Same here. I was very dubious putting the oven on for roast potatoes, parsnips and a pie thinking we could have a power cut halfway through. I've not been outside yet to see if there is any damage. I did hear a wheelbarrow blowing about yesterday but could see where it ended up.

No damage here just lots of twigs and branches from our silver birch. The wind even blew the Witches broom out of the tree found it next to the compost bins.

Wind's getting up again. Had some heavy downpours today - the old pond is a pond again!

I slept on the couch with Kato on the floor next to me last night. The slates were rattling on the roof and I was very surprised none were missing this morning. 
It's been milder today and with the sunshine it would have been quite pleasant for Kato and I if we hadnt tbeen blown about as much!

Sounds like everyone is experiencing Mull weather at the moment. It’s been a windy day with some heavy hailstorms.
