[Sussex] A bit brisk tomorrow... *** Met Office RED weather warning ***

[Thunder Bolt]

Record breaking

A wind gust of 122mph at the Needles on the Isle of Wight is provisionally the highest gust ever recorded in England, the Met Office says.

Tree has come down on a Range Rover along the old shoreham road just past Portslade

Hope no one is hurt.

just been back to Lancing beach, for a quick blast of fresh air, the walk from the Albion car wash to the Perch, was like walking home on a Friday night at 3am

Garden furniture now on the move....large dining table on the patio was several feet away from where it was earlier......

The wind or do you have some England fans in your garden?

Big Jet TV live from Heathrow is "interesting" viewing.

Cuirrently a flight from Vienna coming in, kinda sideways, for his third attempt to land.

I ****ing hate wankers that clap when planes land but I think even I would today.

Amazing viewing.

 

[Jack Straw]

We shall rebuild.

A slight ripple on the garden pool, but not too much to worry about.

Back fence just gone! The only boundary we own, of course!

You can get them, but they're damned pricey.

Oh, mine would be very cheap and nasty

The same residents whose recycling bins have toppled and spilt everything down our road several times over the last week, are out there again, Benny Hill-ing chasing paper and milk bottles. Some of them, several times in the last 24 hours

We all have garages and side paths, well away from the wind!!

What's the definition of madness?

Haha....just had that chat with my mum.

'Bin has blown over three times....neighbours have rescued it for me'
'Why don't you just put it in the garage (which is literally right next to where it keeps getting blown away from) ?
'Oh yeah, good idea'

It’s got a bit mental out there now. I’m right opposite the green but luckily at the back of the building . My bins are doing a bit of a waltz with each other on the drive though

Where is that ? Whitehawk ?

I have always thought someone should manufacture fences with panels that can flip open, like window blinds. Allowing the wind to travel through without ripping the fence panels apart.

Easier to return the neighbour's cat shit back to it's rightful owners too.

Someone at work put it on our slack channel and I've been glued to it ever since.

Some serious gusts here in Patcham.

Ventusky.com has them at around 83 mph.

it is a bit boring, maybe in half and hour or more when the full force of the wind gets up there.

Sun is out now, and it seems to have died down, somewhat
