Your video won't play for me. Why's it worse at sea? It's science stuff isn't it, it's science spoiling my fun again :mad:

Please let your dog stay inside tonight. It's too rotten outside. He/she will be shivering. You could make a bed for him/her from a blanket. Just fold over in half and half again if needs be or from an old jacket and place it on the floor in the sitting room, hall or even your bedroom. If you're worried he might pee in the house, don't be. Don't are usually smart.

I have my dog spoiled rotten. She sleeps in my bed, under the covers, almost sharing my pillow. She's a warm creature and I use her instead of a hot water bottle.

Winds are getting worse in Galway and has been bad for a while.

Please go away storm.

RiverOfLove

The winds sound terrible. I haven't been outside for a while so I don't know if I'll be lifted in this.

Last time I remember something this bad was back in 1995. Feb of 1995. There's been storms since and many but I don't remember them like this.

My dog's house is so good that I have to often remove "squatters" (the neighbours dogs) before I can let him in!

I've got a cellar with dramatic swingy doors. Ned Flanders isn't allowed in though!

It's ok, I brought a bottle of whiskey to bed with me. We'll keep each other warm won't we. I think I might open the window and leave a bit of wind in.

Squatters in the kennel...brillant. Another low promised for monday according to the weather forum. So that's probably another storm.

How will people come home from the pub tonight or will people be locked in for safety?

Karl Stein

The fishing boat 'Mary Ellen' is not too far from Lough Swilly on the north Coast now folks. Looks like it's been fighting a strong headwind in an attempt to get to safety.

No shelter from mountains and forests.

Same. One of the lads had a link up to listen to contact between the pilots and the control tower at Dublin airport.

I let him into the house at about 5AM, the noise of the debris flying around was scaring him too much.

I have sad news to report, I only discovered this morning that my weather sock did not survive the recent storm.

I don't know how I could have missed its absence by my wife, putting out some washing call me to show me the weather sock crumbled and torn and dashed against the back wall of our house.

Jesus Red, thats terrible
My thoughts are with you. I know how you're feeling as I lost 2 flowerpots myself

On a serious note, there's an old 40' trailer in a field at the roadside of the dual carriageway near my town that acts as an ad hoc billboard. It blew completely over on its side! Delira!! Ugly thing.

I noticed the Weather forum have started a thread slagging off this thread. I actually felt myself cringe at the OP's sad lack of humour in that thread. I think if you're going to try to insult/poke fun at another forum, you should at least have the decency to be amusing:D

There's one of them down towards my home, it below over as well. I don't know how any company could think it a good idea to advertise their business using such an ugly piece of metal!

Very Eastern Block. I know it's too much to hope that it doesn't get reinstated

They are the kind of people who watch the weather update after the news just to correct the poor sap who is presenting it.

I think what they are trying to do is come up with stuff that would be said here. They dont seem to like cork either. Took me a few pages to work it out.

Don't know about that, but once on the weather forum were was a storm approaching but this time it was so directional that it was only going to effect the South and Cork in particular.

All us Corconians were posting away like a good thing when the thread was locked as a Cork Only Event!!!! :pac:

Raining, blustery and cold here.

Yeh they can get a bit serious, but they are in a science forum so not altogether unexpected. Grand bunch of lads though, I follow it regularly. But I like AH too, some funny fcukers on here. You kinda had to be a regular on weather to "get" the recent thread, but 'twas only a bit of banter, no proper slagging like.
