Very AULD thread, but the UK is currently in the grip of an extreme (to us) weather system. Very strong winds and rain as per the BBC.
Quote:
Severe gales of up to 70mph (129km/h) are battering large parts of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, with worse weather forecast overnight.
Winds have already felled trees and power cables, forced bridge closures and disrupted ferry crossings.
Worst-hit areas are north-west England, Yorkshire and the Humber, Northern Ireland and Anglesey where weather warnings are in place.
Parts of Wales and the Isle of Wight have also seen localised flooding.
Even here in my protected Vale (think The Shire) the winds are buffeting the house.
Was just wondering how other Brits - in more exposed locations - are keeping...?
