    I'm stunned we didn't lose power. It was sparking up the lines.

    I've got to help a mate carry a fridge and a sofa out of his flat at 6pm, just as the winds peak here. 50-60mph winds are not sofa carrying conditions.

    The Met Office and their Irish and Dutch counterparts have divided up storm naming amongst themselves and this is what we ended up with:

    The gap in time between WW2 ending and when I was born is now a fair bit less than the gap in time between when I was born and now.

    My birth is closer to the Napoleonic Wars than it is to my death. Or, at least, here's hoping.

    This one was British named apparently. UK Met Office involved too.

    It's a shame we'll probably not get to see Storm Pól. Sounds like a Norse god.

    Mid arvo and my bench top is currently 33*.

    The western sun is going to melt my thongs into the footpath come January/February.

    Lol having the Summer Olympics here in ten years time what a stupid decision.

    It’s mean to be snowing on Christmas Day here and for 5 days after. Don’t think I’ve ever seen it snow then.

    One of the best things about the UK, or at least the south, is (presumably because it's a wee island) the temperature resolutely refuses to go below about minus 2, even in weeks-long cold snaps. I can't remember it ever being below minus 4, even once.

    In 2010 it did, but yeah it is pretty great.

    That said, I've had to de-ice the car every morning for about 2 weeks now and that can fuck off. More global warming ASAP.

    Celsius, It was like 2 Fahrenheit I think.

    I think Foe spent some time in Texas, right? I have been there, but never lived there. The trajectory so far has been Florida, New York, Missouri, Pennsylvania.

    They must build properly insulated houses or just live within Beaver skin coats?

    I have yet to live in a properly insulated house, but I hope others are better. Not sure though, since it is all built of wood for some reason. You just have the heater running 24/7 half of the year and the AC the other half. I probably get to turn it off like five weeks per year during the glorious Fall days.

    That's what's wrong with this country, we let these foreign storms come over here and cause property damage that could have been done by a good old fashioned blustery day. It's a fucking disgrace.

    Given the above list of storm names (and I thought the idea was that they go up the alphabet so how are we at 'M' already?) how have we ended up with Storm Malik?

    Anyway, if we were going off our list, and we were at M, how the hell are we saying Méabh - mave like wave? Meeb! It's probably Simon or something.
