Rock Me Like A Hurricane!
Have you heard the news? Whee have weather warning here in the UK! They are giving us an Amber Warning for Wind. Wind? The little hoomans made a lot of naughty jokes about how they shouldn’t have had beans last night but Mummy said it’s not that sort of wind. It’s the outside wind.
Now I’m not a baby but I really don’t like wind. It ruffles my fur and makes me rumble crossly. A little breeze is nice. In fact I like to climb the bars of my cage so I can spy on the others feel the breeze through my tummy furs!
Whee live in the front room of our house which has a big chimney. When it’s windy it’s really noisy in there and whee don’t much like it. I sit there rumbling and rumbling. Mummy said I should be grateful because some piggies live outside in the wind. I wouldn’t like that so I take her point. But with these wind warnings in place whee hope that efurryone with outdoor piggies, rabbits or other animals brings them indoors, just till it’s past. The winds are predicted to be 80mph round us which is pretty scary.
To check what the weather near you will be like you can get an up-to-date forecast here.
This is what it says for us tonight:
Tonight
Heavy and persistent rain will spread northeast, coupled with increasingly strong winds. Winds strengthening further towards dawn, with potentially damaging gusts and squally showers.
Eeeks, whee think it’s extra hay and snuggles before bed tonight!

The hurricane rocked around here the whole night, please stay safe dear piggies.
Gosh, hope everything has settled down where you are now.

Stay safe and get cuddles from Mum!
Whee are getting lots of fuss and attention so whee don’t get scared.
Nacho

Stay safe guys! Extra hay sounds good, I would think the drama would call for extra treats too though! hehe! =^.^=
Extra treats sounds good to us too. Hope your boat manages on those stormy seas! 🙂
Have a settled Sunday

Hey, it’s windy here right now too….weird. Two days ago, sunny and warm. It’s 6:30am, the wind is howling and I see white grass…ugg. Stay cuddly!
Gosh, whee don’t like this scary wind, especially if it’s going to hurt my lovely green spaghetti . . . Grass! 🙂

One of the things I’m most afraid of is wind. No thank you! We get pretty scary wind here pretty often, but instead of rain it usually brings firestorms (and I ask you, isn’t that good enough reason to hate wind?). Hope you stay cozy and dry and draft free.
Also, so glad it’s not going to be like that tonight, it’s “Trunk-or-Treat” here tonight at my church (“trunk” = “boot” in America, everyone decorates their cars in the church parking lot, it’s very fun to see what folks come up with). I’ll be wearing my old standby — my old riding helmet that looks like a hunt cap and an outfit that looks like I’m off to go foxhunting while riding side-saddle.
I don’t have a car of course, but will still be going just the same. Have a fun day piggies!
And Nacho? You’re still kind of a baby. Annie is a big girl, and Frederick and Harville take after her (as they are not quite six months and already bigger than Wentworth). They look full-grown, but they still spook at everything and get in lots of baby boar trouble. I’ve raised a lot of baby boars in 23½ years, and I don’t declare you out of babyhood yet little dude.
Hope you don’t take that too much to heart, you’ve certainly grown up quite handsome my friend.
Mummy says I throw my weight around like a big piggy! But I’m still a little pig.

Ps. Have lots of fun at your trunk or treat! 🙂
You’re complaining about scary things around Halloween?
Well the wind is just too scary! Ghosts? No problem. Zombies? Fine. Vampires? Alrighty, but the wind? *shudders*

Haha I just posted about the horrible weather on my blog, then saw your post ^_^ 🙂
It is scary weather. Whee hope efurryone gets through it ok! 🙂
Nacho

We have super duper blustery wind here all the time. I wuvwuvwuv it! Woooooowoooooooo!
Oooo you can has our wind too! 🙂
Nacho
xxxx
I’ll be thinking of you all – maybe Mummy or the little hoomans can turn the TV up really loud or read you a story to distract you? Of course treats always help too! Take care.
Whee have some nice music on at the moment but whee can hear the wind still. It’s getting very blowy out there!

We got storms like that when we lived on the North Sea coast in Germany. It can be scary!
It is pretty scary and noisy but the hoomans are playing us some music and distracting us!
Nacho

eek, mummy always told me she would never like to live on a coast, instead whee live by a lake.
princess guinea
XOXOXOXOXO
Whee don’t even live on a coast but that would be pretty scary.
xxxx
oo, lucky you!! = )
Yikes, take care. We hopez the windz are not as bad as they are saying and the storms are over soon. 80 MPH winds are definitely bad. We hopez you don’t lose your power. Shelly is terrified of the wind and thunder, she runz and hidez as soon as it starts. The rest of uz are pretty brave unless it is a really bad storm and then we hidez too. Love Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (the big chicken) (C.A.T.S)
Whee have some lovely loud music on to distract us but Mummy is going out in a minute to check on her neighbours so that’s not going to be fun.
Nacho

It’s nice that your Mummy checks on the neighbors, It’s always good to look out for each other.
Stay safe dear piggies – it does sound like it’s going to be a frightful night. Let us hope the BBC weather people are building this out of proportion to make up for last time 😉
It was howling something awful all night! Scary!

Hehehe glad your Mummy liked my posing pigtures, I do like to feel the wind in my furs but not the wind out there right now. It’s howling something awful!

Sending good vibes your way so that you stay warm and safe. Annabelle and MollySue never go out as we live in an apt.so they are always in nice weather.
We are sending good vibes to any outside piggies, bunnies or other critters, that they are always kept safe and out of the weather.
Whee are always indoor piggies because there are naughty foxes round here who might think whee is there dinner but there are lots of piggies kept outside that whee hope were ok
Nacho

We don’t much like high winds either. They’re noisy and scary. We’re glad you’re inside. Be safe.
Whee can hear the wind howling still, it’s pretty noisy and scary out there right now.
Nacho

Hope you all remain safe and sound!
Thank you, it’s howling something awful out there but whee think the worst has passed
Nacho

Wally & Sammy

Nacho

It’s very loud and some parts round here have fallen trees but whee have made it through the worst of it so that’s good! 🙂
Stay safe
Nacho

Pleased to hear it. we’ve had rain but very little else!
I hope the weather has calmed down a bit for you over there! Heavy winds ARE pretty scary…even for a 34 year old dog mom from California! By the way…your little home is beautiful! I love that your humans created such a great living space for you and your siblings!
Hehehe, that’s just garden time that whee get to play with all the cosies! But Mummy keeps buying more!
