    W and NW tend to get the worst of the shit weather. 40 mph winds is shit enough thanks.
    This is definitely true, these systems tend to come in along the jet stream off the Atlantic, but they can very easily move along the English Channel so the SE does get a battering regularly enough.

    Where I grew up, we had a weather phenomenon where the wind would whip down over the mountains and with no trees on the prairies to speak of, it got pretty windy. 100km+ was pretty common, like 2 or 3 times a year. Fuck me I don't miss that.
    Did you get the Pineapple Express too? That shit looks brutal.

    I'm sure if there's any damage, Boris will be right there to help out by staging a photo op of himself in a rescue vehicle.
    You know every PM does this, right? I can remember Tony Blair standing on the bridge in Bewdley during flooding, he got heckled by the locals.

    I'm just north of the westernmost tip of red warning 1, it's not that windy outside but it's raining. The storm is currently centred over South Wales, so it's heading my way. I expect the wind to pick up in an hour or so.

    *edit - easternmost tip. Oops.

    Nope, that's on the coast. We were about 1000 mi inland, on the other side of the Rockies.
    I just think we should suspend judgment on Boris until we have all the facts through an inquiry, police investigation, and parliamentary commission...then we should explode him.
    also,
    I'd like to be called Lord Poopy His Most Gloriously Excellent.

    Fuck that. Heathrow will be closed soon, that's the very limit of safe aviation.

    Not sure how to post the video starting at a particular time, but if you go to the landing at about 9.10 am a Finnair plane almost bites it.

    This is the best TV show I've ever watched.

    Edit: 9.07 to be exact. Probably should just look at the clock on the video next time.
