Severe weather warning for Welly tonight

[Shadows]

The wind is howling right now. Take the back roads or shelter areas. Be careful people.

Once I got clear of the homo cagers and was able to get some reasonable speed on I stopped getting blown all over the place. I actually like riding in inclement weather. That will probably all change when I get a shinier bike though.

I had to remove some seriously wrecked limbs from a pohutakawa before the crashed down into powerlines....that wind is really picking up in places, not fun to climb in

Wild night, heavy rain but didn't seem too bad until I got up this morning and saw 2 branches snapped off our Elm tree
Listening to the news report on the radio they reported an 8 hour ferry crossing with one passenger sustaining broken ribs and and other with a broken arm. Must have been plenty of going on.

Been on one of those crossings where the bow was dissapearing under the water and the whole ship was shuddering cause the props were in the air driving nothing.

EDIT: Local fire station alarm has just gone off again.

Not too bad our way... Thought you would miss the worst of a southerly there B.

I sat on the train coming home looking at the white caps on the top of the 4-5 foot swell in the harbour and decided that I'd made the right decision.
