[FrankMunro-371]

A bit like you with Wolves winning?

Very good Kenny.
I cannot really argue with that.

Someone has turned the light off over Darlaston!!

End of the World is nigh....

 

[Paul]

Frigging monsoon in Cannock !

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Not too clever in darkest Leicestershire..

 

[James]

Frigging monsoon in Cannock !

Wedges Mills was fun to drive through

 

[PPB]

Don't know what its doing in Britain but it's like the end of the world here

 

[Penk Wolf]

Darlaston, Cannock, Wedges Mills, yes end of the World too.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Storm Abigail poised to hit Scotland.

 

[Penk Wolf]

When did we start giving gusts of winds names?

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Abigail is the first one so named in Britain.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It isn't a bad idea to do so to be honest. Matches up with other parts of the world.

A little unfortunate that the naming gets messed up on Sunday when Katy arrives as that is a previously named Atlantic hurricane so doesn't get a B name for us.

I'm in Aviemore at the moment. It was pretty wild at 7.30 this evening with strong winds and heavy rain, it was getting dark at 3.30! It has settled down for now and we just walked back in the dry

Abigail is a shit name for a storm, you'd imagine an Abigail as a nice polite young lady, doesn't conjure the right image.

You wouldn't say that if you knew an Abigail I used to go out with!!

Or indeed the King Diamond album Abigail

EXCELLENT eighties thrash concept album. Very witchy.

Having the word 'gail' in the name is more than apt IMO.

 

[Stan Hullis]

A-big-gale

Someone is having us on

 

[FrankMunro-371]

One hesitates to be critical of the weather forecasters, but this morning on radio Leicester we were warned of heavy rain, with possible hail and thunder. We had a short, sharp shower about seven o'clock this morning, but since then not a drop of rain, and blue skies until dusk.

 

[Tony Towner]

Derby Council have cancelled all kids games for Sunday...bizarre

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It is going to tank it down from 9 in the morning tomorrow until well after dark.
