Batten Down The Hatches For Bella

Storm Bella is in her way, I loved this cottage's flood barrier in support of the RNLI.

Oh my gosh! Stay safe! Wishing it would hit with only a whimper.

Sounds rather hectic. Cool flood barrier but I do hope it's not necessary. Hope you will stay safe and dry

Lots of homes in our village/town are having to do this too. This looks fab as well as functional. Hope they all stay safe and dry
December 26th, 2020  
Not good! This barrier is great..
December 26th, 2020  
Sorry about the pending storm! This is a great shot!
December 26th, 2020  
So interesting looking. Stay safe.

It must be slated to be a wicked storm; that doorstep is already elevated, so to put additional prevention in place means a lot of water is expected. I hope all remain safe.

I hope this is not a portent of the storm to come. So sorry that it’s a threat to you and hope these are unnecessary precautions. Stay safe as much as possible.

I love this photo for some reason and therefore and giving it a FAV

More sandbags have been added since Thursday.
December 26th, 2020  
Great barrier. It looks seasoned. Stay safe.
December 26th, 2020  
Beautiful photo, sorry the sandbags are necessary. Stay safe!
December 26th, 2020  
I hope all goes well for your area - the waiting is so scary. :)
December 26th, 2020  
That's a lovely looking house/door way, I hope storm Bella isn't too severe
December 26th, 2020  
Lovely doorway!
December 26th, 2020  
Crikey, hope you stay safe.
December 26th, 2020  
My goodness- I really need glasses! I thought this was a headboard at first! Hope all is well and not so wet.
December 26th, 2020  
May Bella be more hype than blow.
December 27th, 2020  
It’s color coordinated with the wall. Hope the storm is not too bad.

party on top preparation below...hope it isn't too bad
December 27th, 2020  
very photogenic. I guess the sandbags are to keep the water at bay? Hope you stay safe and don't have any damage.
December 27th, 2020  
Oh dear...looks great, but hope the storm doesn't come in and create havoc.
December 27th, 2020  
Goodness, I hope it doesn't come to that--yikes!

We had an inch of rain during the night and winds that blew our empty wine bottles around the garden. The Isle of Wight, to south of us, recorded 100+ mph wind gusts, and The Island does give us shelter in nasty weather.

Other areas were not so lucky with felled trees and flooding.

I do hope this cottage and its neighbours, stayed safe

Such an interesting shot. The doorway appears to be raised from the ground already, with a hight step. And that fire hydrant plate in feet and inches. Love it.
