Debbie

The tail end of Debbie, first cyclone then storm , down the east coast of Australia, has now whirled her way to the North Island of New Zealand.
It has been raining for most of today...and the next two or three days will be very wet and windy.
Good thing we're not staying anywhere low lying....

Storm Henry

One has this visual image of a small infuriated vacuum cleaner, blowing instead of sucking.......

but seriously it was, serious....not as strong as over the Highlands and Islands, but not very friendly.

Not sure why the top picture went orange...I did use an exposure for fast moving things.....
