As a Cornishman now living over the Tamar, I send everyone in Kernow my best wishes and the hope that things are not going to get much worse.
Also hope my little sister in Germansweek in Devon is OK, as I haven't been able to get hold of her. Living on the edges of the Moor, she sometimes finds herself trapped by snow or flooded roads - pretty remote where she is. My thoughts are with everyone down there - and of course with the rest of the country who are suffering.
Stockton on Tees is fine and clear today, blue sky and drying nicely, not quite as warm though. Commiserations to the people who will not be able to have Christmas at home in the South, you just do not expect the maelstrom they got .
Gale force winds today where the hell did they come from but it has been just about tropical at 9.7c no wonder the heating didn't come on, oh well Christmas Eve tomorrow, are these boards open Christmas day ?
It can be so cold here in winter in Dordogne and the rain can come down like solid sheets but yesterday it was 14° and sunny, which was lovely with all the grandchildren here. It must be so awful for those who've been flooded.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

P***** it down all day, thankfully although most roads are flooded does not seem nearly as bad as Cornwall/Devon.

DRy day today, Hopefully will dry out roads and my quagmire of a lawn, went flying trying to retreive a cat last night.
Hope southern Forum members inSW are OK
Dry, sunny & windy out there today. I watched the outside temperatures rise last evening!
I just cant imagine how awful it must be for some folks. Take care everybody. J.
The Fens; dry and warm, I hope it is the same for people in the South West.
Dry, sunny and breezy today - a bit of a dry spell wouldn't come amiss.
All good wishes to folks in the SW.
