Well ive not seen much on here about the dubbed "St jude" storm about to hit southern England
Had a couple of trees down and the waves are crashing like a boss

Also...Ive got a train trip to bristol tomorrow.... Likelyhood ill survive?

[cully]

no wind here just lots of rain!

[Dum-Dum]

Well it should of kicked off by now and my 10ft TV ariel is only held on by a couple of cable ties but the fact that I still have perfect reception suggests my ariel is still there and thus the storm cant be that bad.

[bigcheez2k3]

I haven't looked outside since 3, could be a fire, godzilla and dragons out there for all I know.

[Tom]

Shit loads of rain here. Hardly a storm, had worse weather the other week!

Within half a mile of temple meads

[Connor]

Well atleast youre not driving, other than that its fine

[lolsteve]

went out earlier to Southampton and the roads were rather flooded in patches. Rain got to the point where the wipers couldn't keep the screen clear. Seems to have calmed a little now though

[cully]

so disappointed!
storm...my ass

over precarious weather people

[Piggy]

its the same when it snows...we are flipping pansies in GB

Rest of world must laugh their socks off at us.

[Chris_90]

Nothing here in chesterfield tiny bit of rain if that.

As piggy said, its all just scare tactics. What a load of rubbish, carnt wait to see what there like when theres a twister coming or something bad uk would be shut down.

[Piggy]

I noticed on bbc live storm page a woman email how terrifying it was when the wind took ONE tile off the roof...ONE!??

Freaking get ready to have the entire roof and 1st floor removed in a proper storm!!

[cully]

just walked around the house looking for damage

i found a strange leave in the front garden
all the bin bags we put out last night are still there

[Jake]

Classic UK... The is a little it of rain...

CLOSE EVERYTHING .

[306Dan]

Must of been really bad here then my bin fell over sometime last night, or the dog did it when I let her out this morning, not quite sure

[ginge191]

Few of the similar down the road. We are on the south coast, open to the elements on the sea front.

[THE_Liam]

Bit of drizzle here. Might be the storm, but most likely just Yorkshire. Drizzle is our trademark...

[Dum-Dum]

so disappointed!

This! Slept right through, theres a few leaves off the trees but it is autumn, load of overblown over hyped nonsense.

[ginge191]

...for some

the Isle of Wight hit winds of 99mph... Matt has gone quiet

[cully]

...for some

the Isle of Wight hit winds of 99mph... Matt has gone quiet

Isle of where? were talking of important places

[Dum-Dum]

56mph was the fastest gust here with the constant speed only getting up to 22mph

Ive been outside, my bins are still standing as are all my trees and surprisingly my TV ariel is still attached.

[Toms306]

Had no electricity here for about an hour this morning!

Also loads of trees down round here. Also on the coast though, so nothing to slow the wind before it gets here...

[Matt]

99mph over the needles!
Took me 4 attempts to get acros the island last night, every road to ryde was flooded. Lost coppins bridge roundabout to floods. My road dissapeared. Couple of trees down.
Local police are useless with trees, blocking the wrong side of the road incase a tree fell. He made sure he was in the side so he can still get home haha

But yeah, pretty bad here last night. Although, didn't lose power once

[Curt]

It's easy for everyone to say it's a massive overreaction and it's typical UK... But if we had this or worse without any warning, I'm betting everyone would moan then, too?

Quite a few places are effected pretty badly anyway, not bad here but Katie's parents in Dorking has had it bad.
