It is already windy outside now, though I am locked down for the week so do not really worry.

I'm following updates/discussion on a weather forum and despite some people saying it's not as bad as predicted, others are pointing out that the storm hasn't even reached the UK yet. Some updates from the South Coast indicate that things are getting a fair bit stronger there.

Just saying.

This is interesting, it's not even Monday morning yet (read the article for context!) and yet the first line of the article is written in the past tense. Lazy journo. Mark

The Met Office have apparently said that winds at Heathrow might reach up to 90 mph and the storm might last longer than expected, with worst hit areas being the Channel, South Coast and Kent.

It is over 60km/h outside right now with gusts near 100Km/h. According to my weather app this speed is likely for the rest of the morning and it will still be high until sunrise tomorrow, with a thunderstorm warning this afternoon.

South coast about 10 secs from the beach according to one estate agent. (Gitmo if Bob is lucky)
