Named Storm!

Today I had to drive home on a dark and stormy night!

We are experiencing the first of this season's "named storms" - a recent development for British storms, they started naming them last year in order to make it easier to impress on people how bad they could be.

Tonight's storm is still raging outside, and has the rather charming name of Angus!

The roads were a little treacherous and the storm seemed to worsen as I travelled home, once I've posted this I should probably check that poor Neko-chan has made it indoors for the night!

We can expect high winds overnight that will likely bring down branches of trees that still have too many leaves on. And also flooding due to drains being blocked by leaves. And possibly power outages and travel disruption if power lines are damaged.

At least I'm home safe so can watch the storm while warm and dry!

EDIT: Cat came in very soggy about 10 mins after I posted this. Got her on my lap wrapped in a towel now!
