I'll be rushed off my feet mate, there'll be cables down all over the place. Not by the wind directly, but by branches breaking and falling on them.

I think you lot are getting it bad down south as well. Ken Bruce was late for his Radio2 show because of a tree falling on a railway line.

We had it bad over here ( Ireland's west coast). Neighbours trampoline gone even though he had it anchored. Trees down everywhere and electricity cut off to 11000 homes. Feckin wind kept me awake til 5am 
. Could be a lot worse I suppose. Off now to tidy up after all the recycling bins in the area were blown over.

Has it blew through then D? Is it quietening down? It seems a little less severe here just now, though they warned it could go on 'til about 1800hrs.

Yeah Cam, it has eased off considerably but due to pick up again later this evening ( though I don't think it is forecast to be as bad)
