Hello, Elle!
I mind fine about St Katherine's Docks now.
You mentioned it to me before.
It is raining hard here, but not too windy.
The wind will arrive here overnight.
I am sure your son-in-law will know about the Irish weather.
It is bad over there.
My friends in the North are visiting their older relatives and making sure they have torches and candles!
Just in case!
Then, home for the night!
I think SE England will miss out on the weather, you will be pleased to know!
Finished my puzzle.
A good one, with the exception of 7d.
An alleged homophone!!!

Hey, Rusty!
Oh my goodness, I am not so sure about the storm's missing us.......
We have just experienced the most weird phenomenon!
The sun turned bright red...and then disappeared.....then a haze of dark yellow cloud hove over everywhere from the West.......
All is now in darkness almost as though it is the middle of the night.......
Needless to say, we have the lights blazing indoors.....
My husband is out with the camera, but whether anything will have been recorded , I do not know....
Is this the storm...?
Or maybe we are being invaded by aliens?

Exactly the same here, Elle.
Very eerie and all the birds stopped singing and hid in the trees. At the moment, there is strange yellow glow, but dark at the same time, triggering the street lights to come on.
. I looked at this earlier

Yes, Jazzy, our street lights are on, too!
And the second picture of the sun shown in the link you sent, was just as the sun appeared over here when it was finally disappearing!
Almost pitch black now....the yellow glow is fading..........eerie.....

We had a very strange light this morning, but it's lovely now (a bit windy, admittedly!) Just fished what I hope will be the last grass cut of the year.

Rusty - I love the expression "Norn Iron" - it sounds just right! Is it yours, or is it in general use?

To clarify, I've finished the grass, not fished it!
