report from the weather underground blog group: Well, this is my first entry so here goes.
Soon a major low pressure system is going to move across southern parts of us here in South Wales and is expected to bring 70-90mph winds in places. Today we have already had an awful lot of rain which resulted in me having to puncture holes in my garden with a pitchfork for the first time ever due to the huge amount of rain falling in such a short period. There is the possibility of a drier period later on this afternoon but the winds are steadily getting stronger and the pressure is slowly dwindling down. Its time to batten down the hatches and watch the forecast as the met office has issued a severe weather warning for us here in Bridgend and other parts of South Wales and South West England. The outlook is better though as sun may reappear on Monday and Tuesday for a time but the winds will change from a mild westerly to a cool northerly by the beginning of next week. No sign of snow on the horizon yet though. -- yipie tie yie yo
