  1. The burning of the brash in the field behind us of another one of the huge tress blown over by #stormamy last year has provided a great bed of embers for a spontaneous bbq. It was a beautiful beech tree and it was over 120 years old.

  2. Roof Update: wall now cleared in the main. We did find a lot of sand and rubble behind the lathe. It is likely that this was causing our damp problems - acting as a wick between the stone wall and the lathe and plaster interior. #HouseRestoration #StormAmy #Damp

  3. House Update: roofer back today because we had a new leak 😭😭😭 - turned out he missed a but of lead flashing - so no harm done and is replacing it today. A much more serious problem is the other wall which is causing a lot of consternation. Today’s job is stripping it out to see if there’s any rubble behind causing the damp to gather. Then we’ll need it framed and boarded which I cannot do myself so hoping to get a price next week. Need to get this done before the insurance guys come back to decorate. #OldHouse #StormAmy #Insurance

  4. A #Yorkshireman working on a #NorthSea #oilrig rescued an #owl that had been blown nearly 300km off course by #StormAmy - he fed her for a few days and she was collected by a #wildlife sanctuary in #Shetland , checked over by #vets and released

    (it is impressive the lad was able to catch an owl and even had all the kit ready to look after her!)

  5. Fire, light, book - power cut essentials (plus camp stove). Just had the weirdest outage ever. Friday evening some power failed completely, some partially, sone not at all. Some lights worked normally, some flickered, some dimmed, some were out. Same with appliances. This lasted two days then all the power failed. Came back on this evening. #powercut #stormamy

  6. Don’t know who he was, but there was a Superman vibe in his sudden appearance, speedy chainsaw-weilding assistance and efficient exit.

    After cutting up the fallen tree he uttered only 4 words, then disappeared on the same 4-wheeler he rode in on.

  7. The sky and the Earth, two eyelids closing, the dwindling light now a mere slit of fiery colours. Nightfall.

    Als je vandaag al naar buiten bent geweest, zul je hebben gemerkt dat het behoorlijk waait. Storm Amy raast namelijk over ons land. Vannacht zorgde ze met name voor veel regen, inmiddels is er vooral sprake van windvlagen. "De komende 24 uur neemt de wind toe en volgt een tweede...

  9. Norge is getting a shot of the wind now or shortly by the looks. The Faroe islands must be pretty wild about now too.

  13. 🍀 Glück gehabt. In dieser Gegend gab es keine Stromausfälle, lediglich mein Internet war für eine Weile futsch.

    :blobcatnompizza: Die Storm-Amy-Pizza gelang. Dazu schmeckten die Seetang-Chips (meine ersten, und in Irland heißen sie Crisps).

    Unweigerlich denke ich bei solchen Stürmen hier an den fiktiven, den Lucy in #EineTüteGrünerWind erlebt, kaum dass sie im Cottage ihrer Tante angekommen ist.

  15. Amusing detail abut the process of agreeing the alphabetical list of #storm names between the Netherlands, Ireland and the UK. The Irish suggestion of the girl's name Fíadh was regarded as problematic by the UK because it would sound, if you have a #nonrhotic #accent , like the rather too bad-ass Storm Fear.

  16. 👩‍🍳 Während Storm Amy heranrast und schon ordentlich pfeift, backe ich eine Pizza.

    Ich hoffe nur, der Strom fällt nicht wieder aus, bevor sie gebacken ist.

    Die beiden Radierungen stammen von Gertrude Degenhardt, die Irland eng verbunden war und sicher manchen Sturm hier miterlebte.

  17. ⚠️🌬️ #StormAmy is arriving now in the west. Expect strong winds (50mph+) across the region this afternoon and all day tomorrow, but especially around Northern and Western areas like #Anglesey, #Gwynedd and #LlynPeninsula (60-70mph). Expect heavy rain also.

  18. Terrestrial Weather

    Storm Amy is incoming and will hit northern Ireland and western Scotland on Friday.

    Meanwhile, the jet stream across the Atlantic is running at a maximum of around 350km/h! No record, but for comparison, the average winter jetstream speed is around 213km/h.
