Huge Storm

There has been some scary storms here recently. Of course you expect it in the winter, but they have been on a different scale to anything we have seen before. Lots and lots of rain, but also crazy scary wind. We have had a lot of trees over as well as damage to the car and to the roof.
Compared to some people we have got of fairly lightly. A friend had a giant hole in their roof, other friends had a tree fall on part of the house and several friends (and the neighbours) have been without power and phone for days. Thank goodness for 5G broadband!

This tree is over the drive. It is HUGE, those roots are taller than me.

Doug had to hack a way through

Somehow the wind blew this light out of the car

Many many trees down over our track

And up the top of the land on fences

Some slates blew off the roof and this one landed several 100m from the house. Just as well no-one was wandering around at the time!

Walnut tree over

The shed in the garden blew away and quite a few more trees over. One is the mirabelle which is a shame

You can't really see the damage on the roof, the zinc along the top has come off too.
