Had to cancel the shop opening today. There's a tree down blocking the road and it's just not safe to walk with 70mph winds. Scarborough town centre is absolutely deserted anyway according to social media, so wouldn't have been much trade.
What's it like your way?

Wow - that's pretty dramatic Just a strongish biting cold NNW wind here in Brighton Did ParkRun earlier and it was pretty chilly but otherwise it's quite a nice day - bright and a bit overcast Probably gonna cycle to the footie later - will be tough cycling into the wind (if it continues) but should be easy peasy on the way home Just downloaded the Accuweather app - it's a fun alternative to the other ones and is, supposedly, the most accurate around. I'll let you know |

Apparently there are a few trees down across the island, but the power outages the government was warning about yesterday haven't happened. No damage to the flat that I can see – in a previous storm, a six-foot chunk was ripped off the edge of one of my balconies. Thank God nobody was walking underneath, or it would have killed them instantly.

It's been pretty windy here, I live on a hill above the Bristol Channel.
Somebody along the road had their boundary wall blown over and there are plenty of branches down everywhere. Nothing too serious as far as I can tell.

Had to walk two miles home last night in a blizzard at like 1am which wasn’t that bad because the wind had stopped but it was still snowing like more or less the entire journey home.

Lost a ridge tile and assorted slates from the roof. Fortunately I had moved my car from under the tree at the front or I would have had no windscreen. Fence next door disappeared completely. Council are up the road cutting up the fallen trees. Snowing on and off ATM.
