It’s a bit fuckin blowy

[Grandpa]

I love how they are so calm...

[sefton]

Wind picking up here on the Lancs coast.
Everything in the garden now gale proofed, I suspect a few wheely bins are going to be rolling down the road soon.
A few roof reapirs here still not finished with repairs after the last storm. Good time to be a roofer I suppose

Ahem, Merseyside coast, you plum.

[SaintK]

The good news is that we still have all of our wheelie bins. The bad news is that only one of them has our house number on it...

[Biffer]

Clear blue skies and sunny here in Edinburgh. Wee bit fresh, but I'm not allowed outside anyway because Covid.

You found two of them!

And they're still upright...

Looks a bit grim down south tomorrow. Stay safe everyone.

Pray for my roof. I’m kicking off getting quotes to have it replaced. It’s well overdue for it and I’m a little worried that it’ll give up the ghost if it gets too bad.

Best of luck. We have a yellow warning for snow. I don't know when the powers that be decided we need to be warned about a couple of inches of snow, but there you go.

My kids (and me to be honest) getting more and more upset as the forecast slowly changes from snow to sleet to rain

[GogLais]

I’m still intrigued. Still a huge difference in predicted max wind speed tomorrow (80 v 43) between us and Liverpool, four or five miles away.

It’s all the hot air produced by Sefton and C69, which acts as a natural barrier to heavy winds.

[TB63]

This is weird.. Have windows open..gentle wind blowing..gentle rain falling..quite nice tbh..
Forecast is Beelzebub is going to be breaking through my windows in a few hours..

I think the warning is less about the volume of snow, & more about it being driven by a >80mph wind, & reducing viability to zero. That was emphasis was in the Irish warnings

Not here. Looks like it's going to blow itself out by the time it gets to us.

The main event is only starting now here in Galway, so we'll have to see how fast it moves, & how hard it blows.

Fingers crossed no-one gets hurt.

Met office just announced a Red Alert for SW England and Wales for tonight and tomorrow
Batten down the hatches folks and stay safe

I like this app - can get a good insight about what is happening around the globe

[TB63]

I'm in the red alert zone, it's a bit blowy ATM...

[Uncle fester]

Barely a puff of wind in Dublin. Did I sleep through it?

[Dinsdale Piranha]

Just starting to pick up in SW London. Guess I'm not going out any time soon.

That's a pretty cool app

[Blackmac]

A couple of inches of snow just south of Edinburgh. Just had the embarrassment of taking my wife's Q3 out in the snow. Why are German motors such pieces of shit in adverse weather.

[tabascoboy]

Dublin is near the storm pressure centre and the strongest winds are all to the south of it. Bit lively at Porthcawl

[westport]

I like this scale..

0 - All Wheelie bins in place
1 - Wheelie Bin has moved
2 - Wheelie bin has fallen over
3 - Wheelie bin is next door
4 - wheelie bin is in different post code
5 - wheelie bin is now in orbit

[GogLais]

It’s supposed to be 50+ here atm but it’s dead calm.

[tabascoboy]

Winds gust about 40 - 45 mph at the moment but will not peak here until midday/early afternoon.

[TB63]

Hitting us nicely now..

[Ovals]

The good news is that we still have all of our wheelie bins. The bad news is that only one of them has our house number on it...

Brtish Winter Olympics !!

[Insane_Homer]

walking up to the local garage to pick up my car after it's MOT should be fun later

[tabascoboy]

Well the Met Office Red Warning now current for London & SE until 15.00. Peak winds still mostly in the SW and S Wales for now, moving steadily eastwards and much worse on the coasts and higher ground as to be expected.

[Insane_Homer]

first fence panel down,

flight radar showing multiple aborts for planes trying to land at Heathrow.

Couple of tiles lifted off neighbours roof.

[GogLais]

Now supposed to be 70+ here and it’s still dead calm. I don’t like it.

[tabascoboy]

Gusts over 50 mph here now and can hear aerial clattering about on its mounting. A little sheltered here but wind does get funnelled down the hill and when the wind veers more W from SW a bit later it'll come through a gap and hit hard

Starting to get power cuts reported now around and about

[TB63]

Pure westerly here now, I'm on a hill with a clear view across to Caldy, watching all the crap blowing over the wall, clearing my garden and landing in the next county...

[Insane_Homer]

of the last 7 planes attempting to land @ Heathrow, 2 managed to get down, 5 aborts, a few of them have have had multiple aborts so far. a few barf bags being used for sure

Gust speeds over 60 mph now at Heathrow

"We're going to need a bigger barf bag..."
