Storm Hannah..
 

Out yesterday for a bit to watch the waves crashing over the lighthouse...
It's amazing to watch, the blue sky doesn't make it look particularly stormy though, but the wind was really powerful.

It was wild; I was in Blackpool for a roller coaster weekend, but that was "enhanced" by the crazy wind and sudden showers, with some rides not operating. I did go on the pier in the early evening to watch the waves crashing in, but no way was I exposing any camera to those elements.

Wow, it sounds like it was worse up there than here!
We didn't have any rain. Just strong wind.

Whenever we have a storm here, the whole seafront is covered in photographers.
