Here comes the sun.... ☀️ Blue skies for many of us over the next few days. The sunshine is now as strong as it is in mid-September, so it's worth being aware that UV levels will be widely moderate 😎

💨 With #StormÉowyn bringing wind gusts of up to 90mph, these extreme conditions mean that it’s simply not safe right now for our teams to climb and carry out repairs to damaged poles and overhead lines. However, we still do all we can to restore your power safely and quickly. 🔁 One of the ways we can do this is by remotely re-routing the affected supplies to different parts of the network – this is a process we call “switching” and it can be done by engineers without the need to travel to the actual fault location. ⚠️ It’s important to note that we can’t restore all supplies by switching – when there’s a major fault we usually still need to carry out repairs on site. 🎥 Watch this short video to learn more:

6 planets align in our night sky from tomorrow evening 🪐 ⁠ Just after sunset, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Venus and Saturn will be visible from east to west in the night sky 👀 Here are your viewing chances (you will need a telescope to see Uranus and Neptune!) 👇
A map of viewing conditions for the 6 planet alignment in the evening sky on Tuesday. Northwestern areas will see clear spells and showers, leading to moderate to good viewing. Elsewhere, it will be cloudy leading to poor conditions.

Depression can affect us all year round 🌧️ ☀️ For some, conditions like Seasonal Affective Disorder might make winter more difficult. However, summer can be just as challenging. Depression doesn’t have a schedule, so it’s important to reach out for help when you need it!
