Well it is decidedly windy this evening coming from the South East which is unusual. From the outskirts of Lerwick and Scalloway southward lost power earlier. Thankfully we don’t have too many trees to cause further chaos.

All I can hear is the wind outside. Brrrr! Ferries, flights and buses all cancelled earlier or even yesterday.

So far we seem to have a pond where my porch floor seems to be. The wind is driving the rain under the bottom of the door. It already need the roof replacing due to a leak. Typically the wind direction is not the way I want the wind to be blowing!

Tomorrow we will check everywhere for damage!

So wind speed is about 65 -70 mph gusting up to 85.

Poor buggers on the mainland are getting similar and have woodlands to deal with too.

Respect to the Electricity dudes up poles on a night like this!
