Yes, windy and wet.

Wind now gusting towards 40 mph and the rain is persistent and heavy at
times during the gloomier spells.

Looking very dark now at 15:15.

(15:15), 13.6°C, RH 92%, DP 12.4°C, 1005 hPa (F), Wind 15 mph S.

It's so dark that we've been reduced to playing scrabble on the
kitchen table, as the kitchen is the lightest room. Nothing else to do
and this weather doesn't make you feel like doing anything either!.
It's the foulest day since....probably not very long ago actually, as
it is November and close to the dog-end of the year.

When we see the back edge of this front - which shouldn't be long here
-it'll be just about time for it to get dark.

I do so love this time of year.
