I am bit scared but very exicted at the same time! , I only was only 2 years old in 1987 one, I don't remeber it. I heard most street windows was blow out, every garden fences went down, no one it was up rigth!

There also another storm 1990 The Burns day strom, again I was only 5, I don't even remember that one either!

Monday 28th october will be a Day to REMEMBER! Just like 1987 one! (I am hoping it not as bad but it could more like Burns day strom that hit in 1990!

O


I am not working on Monday, my work place as closed for that day!

I'm in South Wales, just slightly more West than you are. Nothing will happen to your windows. We arent talking a nuclear blast. Windows in this country are more than capable of dealing with a bit of wind, double glazed or otherwise. If they werent safe to use they would be illegal.

If it does get 80+ mph (which I doubt) the safest place you could be would be in your house. The danger will be to the people on the roads. The winds right now are 40mph here, and unless you look out the window you wont even notice it.

[Ammi]

The worst storm for more than five years is expected to arrive in the UK tonight.

Winds of up to 80mph are forecast, along with very heavy rain.

The storm will develop over the Atlantic during the day and is expected to hit the south-west late tonight, before moving north-eastwards across England and southern Wales. It is already causing very rough seas along the south coast.

Prime minister David Cameron has chaired a meeting with various government departments and agencies to co-ordinate a response. The extreme conditions could lead to severe flooding, disruption to travel networks, and fallen trees and power lines.

Here is a round-up of all the latest on what is being called the 'St Jude storm', after the patron saint of lost causes, whose feast date is on Monday


An amber warning, meaning "be prepared", has been issued for the southern half of England and the southern half of Wales.

A yellow warning, meaning "be aware", applies to rest of Wales and England up to the border with Scotland

Flooding

The Environment Agency has warned of surface water flooding across most of England. Around 20-40mm of rain could fall within six to nine hours overnight..

A spokesman said: "We are supporting local authorities who will respond to any reports of surface water flooding. Seafronts, quaysides and jetties should be avoided due to the risk of overtopping by waves and wind-blown shingle."

Winds

The first strong winds are likely to hit south-west England on Sunday night, with gusts of 75-80mph. The storm is predicted to then move north-eastwards, with winds of 60-70mph in the Midlands and East Anglia. Northern England and North Wales could see winds of 50-60mph

there will be many trees outside my house coming down tonight

Tomorrows paper
Here we go again.



This one will need to keep a good eyes on as it's very deep low pressure, also like St Jude storm last month, this storm is called Emily, which is making way very slowly toward and getting deep the longer it takes

which will hit England next week from 18th-20th December, most of england will be effected by storm

As gales force winds up 70-90mph or even high on Heel, Enough bring down trees and powerlines and some bullding might get damage.

If put yout Xmas light or decroations outside the house, , your santa might end up in some one eles living room.


This really early, as soon i found more info, I post!

One of the farmers where I live told me yesterday we should expect some bad snow between the 17th and 24th of December :laugh:

He's been right every other time he's said something like that though.

[Josy]

The weather here is so strange lately, the past three or four days we have had like one long rumble of thunder then about 20 mins or so later a huge flash of lightning (only one) then after that it's hailstones and snow then stops.

The winds are getting bad again too.

I have a really cool Storm watch - bought it in Carnaby Street in their London main shop.

It was a 1997 very limited edition one with 2 little analogue white dials which I can't even pull a picture of. But now worth 3x the £100 it cost way back then.

I'm disappointed this thread is not about my rare watch :-(

Edit - my other Storm watch is rubbish.......I got one from China for £1.99 that is almost as good as this one which someone gave me :-(

the storms and winds here ended early christmas eve, and they came back just after midnight after boxing day, bit weird
