Is Shannon gone again? http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/radar/
Or has that thing heading to Wolfe taken it out on its way:D

I started to write a post there but deleted it cause I was kinda freaking myself out.

Haha Irish

Won't allow me to upload an audio file. It is not coming out great anyway as it is so base-y sounding. .

Just to paint a picture for you. That is due SW from me. That forest is less than a mile from me but the winds are coming from the East. The noise is more or less coming from that location but it is continuing to grow and wrap itself around the hills. I am sure there is a logical answer and I will go with the atlantic ocean churning itself up one. Although, in my 30 years living here and being a weather freak I ahve never heard it before.

I too went out for a listen and I am at the other end of the country. Strange night out. Almost a sense of foreboding about it.

Irish1967, you're right there is a strange atmosphere out there, almost made the hairs on the back of my neck stick up, it was so potent you could almost reach out and touch it whatever it is, like a sense of impending doom.

id hedge me best that what it is.

Chicken Run

Bloody hell - was just checking in before bed...and you do this to me !!!! eep...

1.2C here and a brisk chilly SE...no humming, well nowt out of the ordinary anyway.

Animals seem to be behaving normally - if it's really windy the horse gets a bit freaked out but he's quiet at the moment.

Got an absolutely banging headache though which is normally a bad sign as far as weather's concerned (although it could be a side effect of snow-blindness, or the fact I'm trying to stop off the drink at least 1 night per week)

quiet here - had put it down to the fact we have a lot of lying snow still and it deadens all sounds

With a user name like yours I would have thought you'd have more sense than to drive to the top of the hill on a night like tonight. Did you never see American Werewolf in London??

Hello again people. I've finally gotten over the thaw.. It's very difficult watching your magical winter paradise getting ripped to shreds and not being able to do anything about it. But there's still interesting times ahead in the short term and quite probably in the medium/long term.
So what's next? I see there's a storm a brewin!

Chicken Run

we're all sitting here on pins waiting for Wolfe to report back.....could be a long night...

I got that banging headache tonight also , left me week at knees , two pandol acti fast and a lye down has done the job !

I'm intrigued as to what's going on at Wolfe's, it's been the snow partrol the last weeks , but I don't really know what to call this situation !

Sorry..

drove up, stopped car and got out. Whatever neighbours I have must be all in bed as there was only one light in the distance. Pitch black around me.

All I could hear as i got out was the crunch of lying snow which freaked the crap out me.

held my breath and listened and the feckin noise was there (i am the other side of the forest in that pic now) to the SW. Seems like it is coming from a long way away but yet you could just reach out and touch the damn banshee. It is an intense low grumbling noise.

The fear of being eaten by something made me jump into the car. started it and door still open. tried to take off too quickly and skidded like a idiot on first rev. locked the doors and was looking all around me for mr psycho to beat the crap out of me.

home now. Noise seems like its louder again so I probably brought the feckin yoke home with me.

I am a rational person but this has just freaked me. I know imagination can play trick with you but the noise is just there. I can hear the damn thing out my window now.


sorry to annoy. it must be that it's a big bad bugger of a storm tearing the tail out of the atlantic.
