oops, Did you not listen to the weather warnings?

Obviously some places got some damage and unfortunately a couple of deaths. However most of England got off with strong wind and a bit of rain. Amusing to hear the news channels trying to big it all up though. Rhetoric like "Rail services are gradually returning to normal after the devastating...

I want it to happen. Love a bit of drama me. I don't think it will though.

I'll post a link to South Today. "One terrified local resident took to the roof, screaming something about saying sorry to NSC before he was taken out by a space-hopper"

After my naysaying on here I have an image of myself up on my roof at 3am in my underpants, crying into a howling gale as a cow flys past and me signalling for help with a torch.

I've got the Thames, The Mole and some other river on 3 sides of me. It's known to flood here but I'm, not expecting it tonight.

All coastal areas will get it worse but then it always looks and feels worse on the coast. I'm in Hampton and not expecting much. It tipped down earlier and has been a bit windy today but that's it so far. Shipping forecast will be interesting tonight.

Oh, I expect to see that post again! Along with a large serving of humble pie, which I'll be eating through a straw as I'll have next doors dustbin where my face used to be.
