Wind

The calm before the storm? South Ave & the sunset over the sea.

OMG! It was so windy last night that I thought the roof was going to blow off at about 2am.  It was howling like nothing I've heard before, rattling all sorts of things.  At one stage I thought I was going to be whisked off to Oz to see the wizard!  I was then woken again at around 4 because it sounded as though hail stones were pelting against the window.  It only lasted for a few minutes (or I fell back to sleep) but it was pretty fierce.  Then this morning, the sun was shining, it was fairly blowy but nothing compared to the night.  The news said that a man was critically injured by a falling tree - that justified missing my morning run!
