:eeek!:

When did that happen?

Just went to log on to our company intranet and there is a notice saying that all non-critical staff have been told to try and make their way home safely.

Looks like I have the afternoon off now as I have also been told that I can not log on again either.

It has picked up loads here now, wind speed of 32mph, gusts of 65mph. Heavy rain also. midlands is now on a 5 alert same as Scotland, wales, northern England, and northern Ireland. east Anglia are on watch but south seems OK so far.

But that's where the strongest wind speeds are, it hasn't been anywhere near that windy at Stonehenge, only gusts of around 50 mph at the most...

Yes, but not at Stonehenge. Those strong gusts have been recorded in Scotland only...

I'm in Swindon, not a million miles from Stonehenge. It's windy, but nothing unusual. Not even one pot blown over yet.

I've seen stronger winds in Newcastle on a hot summers day.
