Our Yorkshire Farm’s Amanda Owen sparks concern over ‘calm before the storm’ at Ravenseat | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV
Amber and red weather warnings have been announced all across the UK as Storm Eunice threatens to wreak havoc. However, so far, Our Yorkshire Farm star Amanda Owen has seen nothing but peaceful skies overhead, sparking concern for what the hours ahead might bring.
Taking to Twitter to share a sunset photo from her perspective in view of her almost 191,000 followers, the Channel 5 star questioned: “The calm before the storm ?????”
She then hashtagged the details: #yorkshire #storm #StormEunice #StormDudley #calm #shepherdess”
@xfloral_jessx stood with her fellow Northerner in solidarity, replying: “We’re a different breed up north, there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes!”
Meanwhile fellow farmer @kaulomengri shared of their own preparations: “Hatches have been battened, peacocks, chickens and ducks locked down, horse and goats given extra hay in their rack…”

She added to Amanda: “Hope you all weather the storm in good order!”
However, some of Amanda’s other Twitter followers were more alarmed by what Storm Eunice might have in store for the shepherdess, whose huge brood of animals includes a heavily pregnant mare.
Amanda had proudly shared photos of her horse’s ultrasound scan just days earlier.
@r0berta_o voiced her fears, writing: “Oh Goodness It doesn’t look good, take care!”
Meanwhile, Amanda and her nine children have been helping protect the animals in a variety of other ways too.
Sharing the bizarre superstition that hanging wreaths of holly up can protect cattle from ringworm, she showed her little daughters Clemmie and Nancy atop horses to allow them to reach closer to the barn roof in order to hang the festive decoration up.
“Maybe it’s just good fortune that the animals aren’t troubled with ringworm rather than holly offering any protection but it’s a simple, harmless endeavour that costs nothing but a little time & effort,” she shrugged to her followers.
