Tomorrows storm upgraded to Red alert

[matticus]

Anyone got a link to live data from (UK) weather stations?

Seriously, I've just heard that some @#~ts are walking on promenades, even 'taking a dip' in the sea!

Not so serious, Is it safe to take my dog out in his pram/stroller as it's quite high sided!🤔

Our local bulls*** news paper posted a video of the storm at 07:00hrs and they are getting a load of abuse because they were on the sea wall ffs

Thrill attention seekers seriously putting other lives in danger, as even the dumbest of the dumb have to be rescued!😠

Or do you mean the reporters and photographers of the local rag?🤔 If so that's even worse!

Fence post snapped (about an hour ago) most of way through at base. My climbing rope is currently stopping the wind finishing the job (for now)

Three ridge tiles have slipped off my roof.
They were only renewed 7 years ago. Not happy.

I can see a door in next doors garden! Wonder if that hit the fence on way past and helped break the post?

The fence at the bottom of the garden is flapping wildly - broken post from what I can see. It's not our fence though so, meh. I've just come in from a visual roof inspection (from the ground) - nothing untoward so far.

The wind has not been as severe as was forecast. Data from Exeter Airport weather station.
Dotted red line is forecast vs red line actual.

the effing BBC breakfast team were reporting from a couple of outdoor coastal locations, without a hint of irony telling people not to travel and stay indoors. True oxymorons.

Entrance to Milford Haven far West Wales - easing off now.
124.5 mph gust recorded at the Needles, according to Met Office fellow Wednesday pub cyclist.
Have lost the end two (windward) ridge tiles (slid down to gutter). Glad I moved car 'away' from house. Is easing down here (East Devon).

My neighbours huge steel barbecue has been launched through the fence into my place and my firtree hedge is now on the floor in the middle. It's 20ft high .... well some of it still is
