    Certainly looks like it, classic shape!

    Really rough around here now! street instantly covered in water with the last shower, then it was like someone turned off the tap! A few minutes of calm and then we do it all over again.

    snap. the gusts are at their strongest here too- they seem to whip up in the showers as M.T. Cranium alluded to.

    When I was driving earlier a crow flew up off the raod in front of me to dodge my car and the wind blew him back into my bonnet! :eek: Anyone for a roadkill sandwich?
