                  It's Dutch apparently Pete, short for Henrik.

                  Back to the norm here today although it's remained calm. A grey sky and a couple of drizzly showers. 3C/37F

                      Well! Our area got hit pretty hard by Henk. Trees down, floods and a four hour power cut with a further short one later. I need to check our trees when it gets light - if it gets light :heehee:

                        Good morning all It's a cool start to the third day of January 2024 with only 8C! It's partly cloudy with little wind. It seems like the day will be mostly cloudy but with some brightness from time to time. No rain is forecast for today, but then we had plenty yesterday! It was also very windy as we were on the edge of an amber warning for very strong winds. We were in an area of yellow warning for heavy rain at the same time! Fortunately there are no more warnings for today!

                              Hi,

                              It's so boring. The only time it didn't pour down yesterday was when I posted early morning to say it wasn't raining. Still pouring down when we went to bed and looks like even more during the night; we're awash again as usual. Cold wet black hole so far; could do with a drop of rain. :wallbanging::wallbanging:

                              Excellent weather for violin practice so I'm not complaining. :yes:

                              Kind regards, Colin.
