Storm on the Island by Seamus Heaney
"leaves and branches
Can raise a tragic chorus in a gale
So that you listen to the thing you fear."

There has been a change in the weather in the past hour here in Ynys Môn, Wales: the breeze has strengthened as Storm Dave approaches. It will worsen through the afternoon, with gales at their worst this evening.

Question to myself - do I risk leaving the antenna mast up tonight 🤔? Down here in E Kent the forecast is for gusts up to 41mph which would be OK, but it could be higher. Cold Front coming through as well #hamradio #stormdave
#stormdave that better have been worth the effort taking the poly tunnel down
#StormDave rattling across the country this evening and overnight brining a multitude of hazards to the north

The translation is this, the country is about to spend the evening being slapped around by weather while official language continues its brave little hobby of sounding relaxed.

Good morning writing community & reading enthusiasts!
Happy Saturday!
#StormDave is heading our way with an all Ireland yellow warning.
If you're nearby, stay safe!
I'll be home anyway, cleaning & writing!
C'mon everyone we all know it's Storm Rodney #StormDave
A friend is referring to #StormDave as David Blowie instead. 😁
I am stealing that, obviously.

A countryside view, brown fields rolling into the distance, there is a hilly horizon and clear blue skies above.
I'm in that North East corner, and it's glorious, for now at least. I suspect things will change when #StormDave arrives later today, but for now, I'm taking this.
I was ready to batten down the hatches today. So far it's just drizzle, like any other. 😏 What gives #stormdave #SpéirGhorm
Had a horrible nights sleep and woke up in a fouler and just now checking the weather and hello there biggest king sized pathetic fallacy of all time
#StormDave
Morning mushy one
I love grey cats, they say all cats are grey in the night
Hopefully
This tiddly side of the Thames will stay dry, but everyone expecting
