curiouswombat: (notes from a small island)

I took this picture up near Mum's, in the north of the island, yesterday, about 4pm.

It was the first fairly still evening for about a week.

Sunset, Burma Rd. January 2014.


Today we have only 30mph winds, gusting to 50, and the sea has stayed on the right side of the sea walls. Joy of joys, for tomorrow The Isle of Man Met Office has issued a red warning with more flooding predicted around mid afternoon because of another high tide (2.56pm), a significant storm surge and severe gale force winds with gusts of up to 65 miles per hour.

What fun...

the Irish Sea is not meant to emulate the North Pacific!

It seems to have got ideas above its station at present...

But we haven't had any icy roads - and any within about a mile of the coast are naturally salted as there is so much salt in the air - so that's a blessing, I guess!
