It's all quiet up here for now and it looks like it won't affect Aberdeen and the north at all. How is it where you are?

A large proportion of the trees were scattered on the various roads I was travelling around on earlier. Mainly leaves and small branches though, just lots of them lol

Did look more severe from the news report I saw earlier on - Saltcoats coastal railway route taking the usual bashing.

Ugh don't like this weather.
Sister's seen 2 cars in a ditch today on her way to work.
Had to go down to Troon as had a dentist appotiment & needed to get to the bank.
Walked from the Dentists to the bank & was sturggling due to the strong winds, so my mum decided she would take photo's of Troon beach... mad woman, got home to find we'd had a power cut, power came back on about 5:40 (I think)

Flippin' 'eck, sounds like you have it bad on the west coast. I've just looked outside and it's all quiet out there - even the drizzle has stopped for now.

Hope you're all ok

Met up with a friend today who's originally from Girvan. Her Dad still lives there right next to the beach and apparently his comment last night was "It's a bit breezy"
