Re: Storm Christoph
One month of January rain expected in just 48 hours!
Re: Storm Christoph
Hope everyone in the previously flooded areas are ok and it isn't as bad as anticipated.
Re: Storm Christoph
Whenever I see heavy rain forecast I aways think of the people and their businesses in Hebden Bridge, it must be soul destroying.

Re: Storm Christoph
Rain non-stop until Thursday afternoon pretty much. Still going to get out for walks though.
Re: Storm Christoph
Hope Billington and Whalley are ok, its getting as though those areas are flooded every couple of years now. Flood defences just push the problems further down stream.

Re: Storm Christoph
Given they work their way through the alphabet when naming storms , we're at "D" next. Could I propose that when they get to "H" they name that one Higgins. Hurricane Higgins has a certain ring.....

Re: Storm Christoph
Haha but it's got to be a girlie name next. In fact it'll be Darcy (which I think of as either M or F, maybe apt for these "non-binary" confused times).
UK/Ireland/Netherlands use different names (but same alphabetical M/F/M/F etc system) to France/Spain/Portugal/Belgium. The latter have just had Filomena which caused big unusual snows in Madrid area. They've got Lola (LalalalaLola) coming a few down the line- we have to make do with Lilah when we get that far.
Re: Storm Christoph
Feel really sorry for those living in areas prone to flooding. As if things aren't bad enough at the moment without having to worry about your house getting flooded again.

Re: Storm Christoph
That’s a very multi cultural list. Very 21st century
Re: Storm Christoph
Why is there no Quentin, Ursula, Xander, Yuri and Zelda
Re: Storm Christoph
Multicultural? I can't work out whether it is actually a list that is nothing but trendy, or whether it's a list written by someone who is determined to prove him or herself to be nothing but trendy.Local cricketer wrote: ↑Tue Jan 19, 2021 11:48 amThat’s a very multi cultural list.

I did have an Uncle Wilson, mind you. Wilson Phillips was his full name - and no, he didn't have three granddaughters who used his name.

Re: Storm Christoph
Plenty of the wet stuff about on my walk today
Re: Storm Christoph
Next letter is D.
To brighten the times, can it be Storm Daniels?
I am sure that would be stormy!

Re: Storm Christoph
I am puzzled as to how a 'storm' can last for a few days. Its wet but it doesn't look stormy to me. Is this another Trun Up the Heat project nowadays?

Not raining in Fulham!

Re: Storm Christoph
BBC weather (Look North West) said our area had on an amber weather flood warning and also a yellow weather warning for snow and ice. Incredible.
And it is snowing now.
