A storm is coming / here

 The north wind is howling around this house and a storm is forecast with snow showers too. I can hear leaves scattering and buckets rattling as they are flung by the wind around the yard. There is a December type of damp cold in the air. The huge beech trees are swaying and the wind in their tops sounds like the sea.

Next morning- That must have been one of the worst windy nights ive experienced in my life. The north wind literally tore and flapped at this house all night as though it was trying to get a grip. Snow blew horizontal, and at the rear of the house the wind was churning with a strange kind of turbulence. Im about to get up and see if there is any damage on the farm. I expect nationally there will be lots of disruption.

And the there were the bad dreams and constantly being woken up by the storm. At times the wind made a booming bass type noise as it hit the house directly. I feel drained by the night.
