What's the weather like with you? It's blowing a gale here in N.Aberdeenshire. Touch wood, the power is still on, but we've lost mobile phone coverage. Trains services are disrupted due to trees being blown down and damage to overhead cables. Wind is supposed to ease this evening and tomorrow looks OK, but more wind forecast for Monday.

I've been working out in the garden this morning and I would describe it as being "a bit breezy". Certainly nothing like gale-force yet, but quite a bit more windy than recently. Not windy enough to cause any problems yet anyway.

The east side of the country was on Amber Alert for wind. We are just Yellow over here in Ayrshire. Strong enough to stop the golfer heading out & broadband has been sticky. Sunny though.
Edit to add: Arran ferry is off today, extra sailings added tomorrow. Lochranza - Clonaig ferry off tomorrow too. Warnings of further disruption when the next named Storm comes over in a few days.

It was very windy today in Liverpool. We were out in the car this morning and the wind nearly took the door off when we tried to get out. It doesn’t sound as bad as you have it further north but it’s still pretty windy.

Had a few trees down and our power off for 36 hours again, here in the Scottish Borders. Wind just getting up again now and the rain coming on....

Nothing really in Essex. We have missed it again. Worst scenery in the country & best weather.
