The met office don't seem to agree... media bull.

Mmm - batter - now I fancy Fish n Chips

 

[soze]

It is fish and chip Friday at work. The boss is going to go buy us all a portion of chips. Plenty of salt and onion vinegar for me please

 

[rynnor]

Shit - now I'm really hungry - there was only 1 heel end piece of bread left for my breakfast toast today

I had fish and chips last night, with a spam fritter on the side. Was very nice. Perfectly cooked chips, nice size bit of cod, marvelous.

Never pay attention to newspaper alerts about bad weather.

 

[Embattle]

Seems some inflation to the official figures by the media naturally.

 

[rynnor]

Meteo group are showing 44mph peak here in Herts but 65mph in Cornwall and the south coast which will cause damage.

 

[Poag]

If you like innaccurate weather forecasts - http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/43...s-Record-breaking-snow-predicted-for-November

It was supposed to be bloody cold by now according to that - my short term forecasts app has it warm all next week which is into November.

And you just jinxed yourself. I'm willing to bet someone calls in sick and you get the "We need your help!!" phone call.

Me too. To dusseldorf . Hope they don't delay all the flights

 

[Lamp]

When we get an inch or two of snow in London all the airports close down, trains don't run, and half the workforce decide they'd sooner be at home and don't bother making it into work. I think we can expect the same if this storm does in fact arrive.

I'd say the midlands are going to be in for a bit of a treat.

Oooh eeer. It's getting windy. GOD DAMN THE BLUE SKY.

 

[Edmond]

Its sunny though

 

[rynnor]

Major leaf drop - could be handy to have the lot down at once rather than sweeping them up for months (as long as the whole tree doesn't come down too).

 

[old.Tohtori]

Isn't 90mph winds around 40m/s, which would be hurricane levels8international windpseed levels)? Seems a bit off

Yes it is which is why there's lots of warnings over the UK tonight

 

[Bahumat]

Guys check your trainlines as a lot are suspending services till 9:00am. They are then going to check no lines have broken before resuming service so you could be waiting ages.

 

[Moriath]

Nothing about planes yet?

 

[Overdriven]

DEPT: 8:05am train from SUO
ARV: 9:20pm at ZFD..

Wow. Wonder if National Rail will pay for my tickets for the alternate journey?

Yup. I'm toying with the idea of just not going in. My boss and his boss are both off so no one will ever know
