Glad to hear you had no damage, Sherli! Cyclonic storms are so weird; I have a cousin in PA with no power, and a friend on Long Island (not the North Shore) who only had to pick up a few small tree branches from her yard.

So, is everyone from the East Coast present and accounted for?

But some times that can be a good thing!

True, Davina, but that was the perfect opportunity to use that line!

The cat slept all day in the sunshine and is now not amused that it is raining. So it's my part now to be his animator.

And every 5 minutes I have to open the door so he can check if it is still raining.

My cat used to do that and then glower at me, like it was MY fault it was raining!

Exactly. Just now he even miaowed at me reproachfully. But finally went out. After the fifth try. Phhhh.....

Cats and rainstorms are not a good mix. I once let my cat out (when she still could see) on a cloudy day....She came in soaking wet, poor thing.

East Coasters, I'm thinking of you lot too!! I hope you are all getting the help that you need!!

Weather in England at the moment - Cold, rainy, windy. Perfect Sherlock coat weather (although I have been getting my hair wet a lot, seeing as Sherlock coats don't have hoods).

Beautiful up here...but cool enough to wear your coat!

Think we may have had the tail-end of Hurricane Sandy today. Blimey!

Very dry lately. Cloudy today, for once. It's been very cold; like SH said, good Sherlock coat weather.

I had 6.35 cm of rain yesterday.

**Posted by Davina** November 23, 2012 8:42 am

Wet! Wet! Wet! Windy! Windy! Windy! Today is SUPPOSED to be dry (yay!) but colder (boo!). Wind has dropped for now (yay!).

Much colder here the last two days and nights with more to follow. Got below freezing and heavy ground frost. Already walked the dogs in it now off to do the horses. Got my ski clobber on to keep me warm.

Gorgeous winter day here.
Cold but bright.

**Posted by Davina** December 1, 2012 11:10 am

To top it all it is now raining AGAIN here! That makes a nice change...NOT!

You have horses? That's so cool! I can totally relate to your dislike of ever colder weather. It's been quite cold here the last couple of days and winter doesn't even officially begin for another three weeks. It's going to be a long, cold haul yet.

Yep. Got one 25 ex-showjumping pony (retired) she has arthritis and a 9 year old Belgian Warm-blood mare showjumper. Another cold night and day ahead of us but at least it looks set to stay dry today.
