Horrible position to be in
Horrible position to be inMy husband’s just gone out in this crazy weather - his grandmother is on palliative care at the hospital local to us and he’s been with her pretty much the whole time since yesterday morning (except when he came home to sleep last night). Other family members live too far away to risk driving in it. We’re in a red zone and I’m so nervous about him driving in it but there’s no other way, he has to be there of course. I can’t wait until it passes, it’s really scary.
I'm glasgow way and it's wild no trees down here but i don't think it'll be too long before there is. I've seen on Facebook a lot of people near me have trees down and power cutsI'm NE Scotland. There's a slight breeze, tad bit rain and some sun. Bloody schools are shut tho
Same here, I’ve seen tiles falling off roofs and my neighbours fences/sheds collapsingI'm in the eye of the storm in centre Scotland.
Very windy 85+ winds.
Still have power
Stay safe everyone x
West of Scotland red area for me too...lights been flickering a lot but thankfully power still on!Pleased to have somewhere to chat about this without derailing other threads. I’m west of Scotland in the red zone. Lights flickering all day. I’ve got candles already lit in case we lose power because it’s dark here in a couple of hours. I got a new roof last year so fingers crossed it’ll be ok but I couldn’t afford the extra to replace the gutters so if they come down I won’t be mad about it.
Dog is terrified and shit on the floor this morning. We’ll probably have another accident before the day is through.
Our neighbour has that artificial grass & it's unravelling with the windWe are sitting watching the rubbish flying everywhere but it's the neighbours 40+ foot fence { council house } that is now rocking back & forward that is a worry as it's on a public lane.
Red warnings in place until 5 but even at that its only going to amber or yellow so will still be wild plus could still be dangerous as structures will be damaged and weakened.My neighbourhood WhatsApp group has been pinging all day - flashing flying off roofs, big branches down, garages and sheds destroyed. Most recent is a neighbour a few doors up saying a big tree outside his house is on the verge of coming down - he's phoned emergency services but it's just to warn us.
My question is, about the dog! I thought it would have died down by now but I'm actually scared to go outside with him, but he needs out. What to do?
