Wet and windy here. I should never of had that curry last night... Bomb... Tish.


I'm in Scotland so we're used to a bit of bad weather now and again. Good luck to the folks on the south coast. Bring your wheelie bins in and look after your pets. I know my dog used to hate it when it was windy.

 

[Chinner]

Left a window open and my room door slammed shut, it's beginning.

that's a ghost

 

[Race to be King]

I'm on my postie delivery tomorrow, pray for me...

May you be delivered from evil. Also puddles. Amen.

 

[cyberheater]

I'm on my postie delivery tomorrow, pray for me...

Get advise from your union man before you go out. Stay safe. Your health and well-being is more important then delivering the mail.

[NinjaBoiX]

Ex postie as well, we're taking over.

Guys, Travel for London just called me:

Apparently four buses have gone astray in the sky.

Serious fucking business.

In all seriousness, it's beginning, wind's whipping up pretty harshly!

 

[Race to be King]

Much respect for you posties - you're made of much sterner stuff than me.

 

[Gigarator]

Calm up in Manchester, the odd gust of wind every so often but nothing more as yet.

 

[Azulsky]

Tomorrow evening throughout Monday night will see landfall of what they're saying will be the largest storm since 1987.

We're expected strong 80-90mph winds and torrential rain of 30mm and possible flood warnings.

Country has been placed on the red alert with the South to take most of the damage.

Prepare guys, and keep safe! This'll be my first time in the eye of a storm.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...aces-for-hurricanestrength-winds-8901530.html

How much of the south is below sea level.

30mm per hour is not torrential rain unless you are below sea level with no drainage.

90mph isnt too bad just dont leave stuff outside.

Get some brews and sit her out.

 

[elseanio]

Calm up in Manchester, the odd gust of wind every so often but nothing more as yet.

Same in Liverpool, just hoping for no power cuts.

 

[Nevasleep]

Ex postie as well, we're taking over.

Are we supposed to moan about how bad it's got now?

Spoiler

Still better than most similar jobs

Same in Liverpool, just hoping for no power cuts.

Yep, think I'll try and charge anything that can be charged tonight.

 

[brokenbeans]

Shropshire here winds have picked up a fair bit the past few hours.

 

[kiyomi]

I love how this thread is basically Michael Fish : The Role-playing Game.

Some slight gusts here, but it was waaaaaaay worse when I went out this morning. Calm before the STORM OF DOOM

 

[Nevasleep]

Going to be some angry commuters tomorrow...

London Overground will be running no service until after 09:00 on Monday 28 October.

 

[McSmiggins]

C2c and Greater Anglia just pretty much cancelled all trains tomorrow until after 0900 going to be a crazy day.

Stay safe everyone out there. The number of Essex people on here still baffles me

 

[Newline]

Canterbury seems pretty damn calm...

Could it be, could it be.... the calm before the storm?

 

[Race to be King]

Going to be some angry commuters tomorrow...

Yikes! And when they do start running they'll be absolutely rammed. There's just a general weather alert for my morning commute to Bath.

Speaking of which, I can now bring you the latest report from Bristol - it's a little bit blowy, but a pleasant temperature and not raining. We're all going to die!

 

[jufonuk]

I got night shift tonight, I wanna know I can get into work, and get home ok tomorrow .

No idea what it is meant to be like outside as have been sleeping most of the day

South East London GAF here, working up Central London tonight.

 

[Oxx]

Maybe I should just not go to work tomorrow.

 

[fizzelopeguss]

Calm up in Manchester, the odd gust of wind every so often but nothing more as yet.

it's because the north west doesn't deserve it.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

All's pretty clear in Birmingham, except it's dark and miserable and, well, Birmingham.

 

[Captain Najork]

There have been reports of people having strokes due to the pure intensity of the news reporting on this live crisis-event.

 

[JonCha]

Going to be some angry commuters tomorrow...

Oh my goooooddddd!

 

[Addnan]

Have to go up to Angel early morning. Looking forward to it.

 

[Arnie]

Have to go up to Angel early morning. Looking forward to it.

Same.

Well, I'm not looking forward to it, it's work.

 

[Smithy C]

Rain's started to pick up here in Kent. Gross.

 

[SuperSah]

Winds are getting bruttallll in Bow.

Reportedly 5.5 hours until landfall.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Lot of fuss of what will ultimately be a slightly windier than average day...

Speaking of the weather, I hope it snows this year...would be nice.

 

[PJV3]

If the power goes like 87, the cries of internetless children will be heard even on the continent.

 

[Broken Joystick]

I think it has started here. The plan is to take car. Go to mum's. Kill Phil ["Sorry!"], grab Liz, go to the Old Mill, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.

Charging phone and tablet right now...

 

[Katana_Strikes]

"Largest storm since 1987" CBOAT going to drop some ultra Truthfacts?

Yikes, not looking forward to it though. I have a driving lesson tomorrow morning. Maybe it'll get cancelled.

 

[Matt_]

Just going to stay at my parents till Tuesday. Outside looks icky
We had some strong winds near Cambridge but they seem to have completely stopped. Is it just going to get windy or will there be thunder storms?

 

[cyberheater]

Take a cricket bat and a cornetto with you.

 

[Dougald]

One of my garden chairs was blown over earlier today. The end is nigh!

 

[seb_n]

Raining now here in Bournemouth, calm now though in terms of wind. Definitely the calm before the storm.

Keep a Stiff upper lip.
Tragedies like that are what builds character.

Remember Dunkirk.

Ah yes but if my perfect English lawn is ruined, I'm afraid all the tea and cucumber sandwiches in the world won't be able to console me

 

[SuperSah]

Sky News is now reporting this to be a SuperStorm.

Train companies have told those NOT to travel.

Prepare!

 

[Professor Chaos]

I'm ready.

 

[PJV3]

Ah yes but if my perfect English lawn is ruined, I'm afraid all the tea and cucumber sandwiches in the world won't be able to console me

I didn't survive 87 by chance, I had to wipe my bottom in the dark, it takes pluck, pick up the chair and rebuild your life.

 

[Xun]

Nothing just yet.

I just want a little storm!

Spoiler

And potentially no work tomorrow...

 

[Inversive]

i'm glad it's in the Sarf, they need toughening up.

 

[SuperSah]

Five hours till drop.

Estimated 12hrs of rage.

I love you GAF.
