Got this one! With bold gold highlights on Old Man & Chainsaw. Thanks Gill, Geoff & their stinkies. :-)
So, 1st lounge floor brush & mop since air purifier arrived a few days ago.
Very few fine grey ash particles on the lounge floor. The major component previously.
The brown/red larger sandy particles remain (Viq paws). Too heavy to get airbourne, obvs. – at Vignols, France
So, a less testy morning (and afternoon) than yesterday.
Get wood in, do all house floors and crossed fingers that pharmacy has everything on the 5 ordonnances in stock (unlikely - never happens).
Then there's the chromebook.
Reached max update limit & misbehaving.
Bugger. – at Vignols, France
Weather Tuesday: dawn update.
Our overnight rain did clear.
Still very very heavy in the south.
Horrendous stuff. Serious flooding.
Round here? Remains overcast, cool and calm. Some fog/mist around in the usual places.
Might reach 11°ish later. – at Vignols, France
#Weatherwatch
3 different model runs for the windstorm at the end of this week.
Its trajectory is narrowing. – at Vignols, France
#Risque #tempête
Peu ou pas de doutes, il s'agira de la première véritable #tempête de la saison sur le Nord-ouest entre jeudi soir et vendredi. Le littoral de la Manche très exposé selon les dernières modélisations !

Weather Monday final update.
23h15
Tis still pissing down round here.
Stops for a while & then more to come overnight.
I'm now doubting it'll clear by dawn.
We'll see.
Tad naughtier in Cevennes, mind. – at Vignols, France
Really happy with today.
Everything went well & everything got done. Loadsa kilometrage in both Dusters.
The thing that failed only failed cos a carte vitale can't be in 2 places at once.
That'll be done tomorrow, then.
Quite a while since a lengthy spell of decent rain has been heard on this utility room roof.
Guess it'll mean another grass/weed cut next week. – at Vignols, France
Just so you know.

🚨 ZONA CERO 🚨
Una auténtica barbaridad. 😰
Lo que veis en las imágenes es la combinación de 3 factores clave:
1️⃣ 🌊 Desbordamiento de ríos y barrancos.
2️⃣ 🌧️ Inundación pluvial. 500 mm en 12 horas no los aguanta ni el mejor sistema de alcantarillado del mundo.
3️⃣ ⛈️ Temporal marítimo. Con temporal en zonas próximas a la costa, el agua no desagua igual de bien y aumenta la probabilidad de desbordamiento. 🌊🏘️
Weather Tuesday: round here.
Any light overnight rain should clear by dawn. 6°ish.
Fully overcast morning but likely dry and becoming variable cloud sometime after lunch.
Might creep up to around 12° by then, if you're lucky. – at Orgnac-sur-Vézère, France
We in Dept 19 are invited by Mayors to join a gathering of common sense middle of the road types in front of Brive & Tulle town halls at lunchtime.
Raphaël Glucksmann should take note of numbers. Cos that's his target audience.
The Centre ground needs pulling together.
Ce lundi 19 octobre, la mairie de Brive organise un rassemblement citoyen, en solidarité avec les communes touchées par les violences urbaines durant le week-end.

👆 update.
Just a few centrists round here then.
Environ 200 personnes se sont réunies devant la mairie de Brive ce lundi 19 octobre, à l'appel de l'Association des maires de France. l.lamontagne.fr/4tf

Anothrt absolute record tumbles by a big margin. – at Orgnac-sur-Vézère, France
Weather Monday: update 15h35
I said it'd need nowcasting.
Certainly did & still does.
Lots of it, but not round here at the mo. – at Orgnac-sur-Vézère, France
Blinking heck. – at Orgnac-sur-Vézère, France

"He took me with him to get wood into house again. Loved it but I got wronged for going too near back fence. Then I found out why next time when I nosed it while he wasn't looking. Its kick is a lot more powerful than 'nag' level on my pink collar. That'll learn me." – at Orgnac-sur-Vézère, France
A few very very fine very very light bits of white drizzle here. Dusty Deux now in 4x4 auto mode. Ha. – at Orgnac-sur-Vézère, France
Weather Monday: update 7h25
Looks like the rain's arriving earlier than anticipated in the south of round here.
And it's cold enough.
No signs of white stuff on snow radar as yet, though. – at Orgnac-sur-Vézère, France
