Tomorrows weather

macafee2 · 17th February 2022, 17:55

I am a bit concerned about the wind tomorrow, winds could reach 70mph with gusts over 80 in the area.
In the South West there is a risk to life warning

Seems no matter where you are in the country you need to make sure everything is tied down.

Lets hope roofs, trees and fences stay put, tomorrow could be a very dangerous day.

We're not going to be affected by the wind so much (had that with Dudley!) but still to be strong and we are being warned of a fairly hefty dump of snow, anything up to 6".

Our local waste site may close tomorrow because they think the staff, and possibly visitors, may be injured by the high winds blowing the contents of the skips out.

calm before the storm, sounds dead calm outside at the moment

No doubt our wonderful media will be running around the country telling us how bad it all is for everyone. I mean it's not like it's never happened before:

wind has picked up and a little while ago there was driving rain.
Rain now stopped but the wind is still there and I can see patches of blue sky.

Several "go rounds" coming off Heathrow where at low level it will be too dodgy to slam it on the tarmac, they then come over my place using the current runway..
