It was decent until 4pm when the sky farted and shat its pants. I pity the poor sods down at Seaburn for the Air Show.

Stormy. It's been due for what feels like weeks.
Stormy would be class. I'm sick of rolling off my kacks like swimming trunks.
Well, I can't unread that.
It's absolutely fucking tipped down here. I assume it's getting it all out of its system so it can be blazing, glorious sunshine when I'm stuck in the flat on backshift next week.
Warm here everyday until late afternoon when it pisses it down hard.
Just started pouring and it's probably the worst day yet.
Ridiculous rain around 3pm here. Straight down, torrential and some mad thunder.
LOL it flooded again before I could move my stuff out.
6 inches this time. Had to be pumped out, but a lot of my shit is ruined.
Bet that's not the first time you've been pumped by 6 inches and had your shit ruined
10°
I've missed not having my kacks stuck to my balls before I even get in to work.
Bloody good today! I've been adding to my holiday tan.
35 degrees today and it is only the 6th day of spring.
This summer is going to bother so many blow ins from down south.
I’ve to head southwest for work tomorrow. I better pack some kacks.
Well that was a whole pile of fuck all.
This is why people should only get their weather forecasts from the Met Office (or the Irish equivalent). The Met have been saying all week that in all likelihood it is going to be a minor affair and took great pains to say "IT IS NOT A HURRICANE". Yet all the papers and TV News lead with 'Hurricane Lorenzo: threat to life." It was always bollocks.
Opposite here. Met Eireann love the attention so have been banging the "SIGNIFICANT LEVEL EVENT" drum all week. Perhaps we should get it from the Met Office.
In fairness, you had a higher chance of it actually being an event than we did, but at best it was only ever going to be a strong autumn storm. As it is, it was barely a fart.
This bodes well for the morning.
Take the long way to Tipperary.
Yesterday the Wear was surprisingly close to breaking it's banks for the first time in about 7 years. We've got a weather warning of more rain forecast all of Thursday / Friday.
Trampoline on a motorway. Nice.
Who would loose such a thing?
This wind whistling up the side of the house can fuck off, the busy cunt.
We have a wind so famous that it has it's own name (La Bise, which translates as 'the kiss') but it hasn't started yet which is worrying. It basically means the mountains are too warm.
Yeah, climate change is real. We haven't had a proper winter since the Beast from the East year. We'll get no snow this year, guaranteed.
Speaking of which, is Australia still on fire? Twitter and the BBC have moved on.
Yes. It's been on fire since September.
We've already had some snow #climatechangemyth
It usually snows when I go on any form of Holiday and I'm at Centre Parcs next week so add a load of bread and milk to your shopping lists.
They reckon it may rain this weekend, and be unseasonal cold. 22-24 degrees predicted
Too right they are and Scummo has already said coal mining and our coal generators will keep going forward because China something something... climate change is still socialist propaganda and Cardinal Pell was stitched up by the god hating Victorian court system.
Boomer men and the Media HATE that Jacinda Ardern is visting Queensland on holidays to help promote the South East as a tourist destination.
We are run by demons and the Murdoch media is doubling down on everything.

I will say thought that when California was on fire last year, none of the foreign media covered it for longer than a day or two
Our lot didn't hang about for the Amazon or Arctic fires either.
This constant wind is boring now.
Some rumblings about the polar vortex making its way down into Europe next weekend around the 25th
There's meant to be a proper storm tomorrow. Lock up your trampolines fellas.
It’s hit the wesht here already, they had to cancel their European city of culture thing today in Galway. I think 5am is peak but it’s only an orange warning at the same time.
Windy as fuck here and loads of rain.
Seems like an annual thing so not sure what the fuss is about.
I noticed they've called a bunch of games off in Holland and Belgium due to this, which seemed a bit soft.
The Met are saying it's meant to be the worst (strongest and most wide spread) storm for 7 years. Gusts of 60-70mph expected across the entirety of England and Wales. Stronger in places. It's expected to ramp up again before hitting Holland. Who the fuck plays football in 70+ mph wind?

The rain has woken me up.
