Hi all - I've set up a Buy Me a Coffee (or Coke in this case) page if anyone is feeling generous and wants to support the page as well as my caffeine addiction 😂. Weather is certainly my passion and I hope to continue the updates well into the future!

I'm not sure who the original source for this video is but it's one of the most mental things I've seen personally from a windstorm. The wall of this house in Lampaul-Plouarzel in NW France gets sucked away due to the strong winds from #StormCiar án.

The calming voice of the late Ian McCaskill takes you back to the evening of the 13th of January 1987 during a big freeze. It was a lake-effect type snow event, dumping 15+ inches of snow widely in SE England. An extraordinary cold spell & is remembered very well. ⛄ #ukweather

One of the best examples I've seen of a meteotsunami - caused by rapid changes in barometric pressure, i.e., from a thunderstorm in this scenario. A notable one was documented here in the UK at Folkestone in July 1929 that killed 2 people with a 6 m wave.
