Yep, first day of a welsh spring.
To be honest it was heavy this morning, but nothing to write home about. I'm up north, top of the amber warning area. In the b*llend area.

Aye, it's pretty much a re-run of last weekend. Gale force winds and plenty of water.
May the bridges you burn light your way

Hilarious! Stu is certainly interestingly located on that 'map'...

Cock aside, it's starting to flood fairly badly here. God knows what it'll be like in the morning.

Just up to the right of that in Merseyside....
Today there's been hardly any wind a few gusts but that's it and the odd bit of "Bear Bones event" type rain but it's nothing compared to last weekend.

Not really gales or torrential rain here, just windy and pishing it down. Sloshed round a 50 miler and it was pouring out me pants by the end....

Re: Hard rain in Wales today?
Yeah, I was going to be heading across the bridge for a party tonight... I reckon I made the right decision not to go.

Another weekend trip cancelled due to another bloody storm named after an OAP.

As I left the Eigiau cottage this morning, thankfully it was only rain falling from the sky. I dread to think how we would have made it back to the car otherwise! However I think that big knob pushed me over as I hit the deck after a sudden gust!

Re: Hard rain in Wales today?
Nice one summittoppler.
All I managed was a walk across b&qs carpark in Rhyl today. Not out of my comfort zone... but still exciting
For any of you storm chasers out there. From experience... it’s not type two fun.. it’s more a case of being thankful for surviving a stupid idea.. just saying...

"Red" balls this morning. Everywhere in the south-east corner of the Principality full to overflowing, surface spillage everywhere
We go out into the hills to lose ourselves, not to get lost. You are only lost if you need to be somewhere else and if you really need to be somewhere else then you're probably in the wrong place to begin with.

I'm slightly gutted that I didn't think to put an event on.

Yep, great opportunity missed there! And a choice of two weekends too - could even have been a split figure-of-eight ride over both weekendsBearbonesnorm wrote: ↑Sun Feb 16, 2020 9:48 am I'm slightly gutted that I didn't think to put an event on.
Would make bog-snorkelling look like the sport of amateurs
