Ok, been looking at those dreaded charts again lol
It looks like sunday could be a 'tad interesting' ;) luckily most folks wheelie bins will have something in them, so that shouldn't be a problem for a change haha. I'd get yer woolie knickers oot though as i reckon it'll feel like about -5c or even lower!

As always, things can and do change, but i'm watching this one as gusts around 60 - 70mph are looking probable at the moment.

Thanks Tugs for this info and I will make sure I am snug and warm watching TV for this weekend. :D

Come on now ms Tuggy. Weather forecasting is one thing but Ann Summers parties (Caithness winter style) is something else

What time do you think this is all going to start on Sunday Tuggs?

I'm heading to the Wedding Fayre in the Portlands, have a table at it and not fancying transporting stuff to and from the car if its blowing a gale.....

Thanks

Well it's easing off as it gets closer, the morning looks to be the worst, starting around 3am - 6am sustained winds in the 40's gusting to maybe 60mph by this afternoons charts, back down to a good drying day about mid afternoon.
maybe not what you wanted to hear but better than it was! lol

i'll check again tomorrow.

Thanks Tuggs. That doesn't sound too bad. At least if its during the night its not so bad, i'll pack the car up tomorrow just in case!

Thanks again
