Blowing a hoolie in N Wales our garden bin I've rescued and laid flat behind my car. It was off our drive and heading for other cars. It's tipping down with rain.

We're holed up, I'm writing Xmas cards

That'll be Storm Elin today. https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/weather/4959539-storm-elin

OH joy Fergus is arriving tomorrow evening. We'll be leafless by Monday.

Thanks OYBBK'

Arse!

I'm a little surprised there are no warnings for Fergus for south east England, I think it must be just below the threshold of expected disruption. Nevertheless, gusting to around 50mph across the SE with a band of heavy rain, currently in the west of Wales, travelling eastwards. I think there's a small potential of a squall line developing within it across the SE.

For Ireland and Northern Ireland, please refer to Met Éireann for updates, I'm off out for the day and dh is hopping up and down with impatience.

Too right OYBBK - I'm south coast and just walked home in it, absolutely soaking despite having my dry robe on. Super gusty but passing through quickly I hope 🤞🏻

OH so Fergus is a South coast problem Wales is spared today?

Jakers we're getting a battering this evening, worse than Elin yesterday. Just looked at the papers there's some nasty flooding in England. South Wales suffering more than n Wales.

More rain warnings overnight as Fergus exits the scene.
