I hope everyone in the UK is fine after the red wind warnings. A tree fell down:

I'm really scared.
 
It is extremely calm in my part of North Yorkshire. Compared to the other night with Storm Dudley, this current storm has completely bypassed the city here
 
If you think we have it bad...check out the video of the Elbe River ferry in Germany on this link......


Now THAT would be scary!
 
Heathrow live feed.....


Do not watch if you suffer from airsickness ;)
 
SUPER heavy rain here last night, almost didn't get home from practice because our two low water dams were completely flooded. Luckily, I was driving the Jeep, so I made it home safe.
 
In our area half of the neighbors giant eucalyptus fell on their side and broke the fence
 
The winds were a bit rough last night here but definitely not as bad as in the UK... Glad everyone is ok
 
Apparently Storm Eunice is thought to be the worst in 3 decades. By my reckoning that's probably since the "hurricane" in 1987. For those too young to remember it, that hit the south of England as well, but the weather forecasters said don't worry, it's not a hurricane. They were correct as a hurricane has to meet certain conditions to qualify as a hurricane and that storm didn't but that didn't stop half the population criticising the Met Office and Michael Fish never lived it down.

In Teesside, it's been a bit windy for the last hour or so (gusts in the mid 40s mph), but Storm Duncan was worse here, as was Storm Arwen at the end of last year. And we haven't had any snow although parts of North Yorkshire and County Durham have (we're sandwiched between those two).

But the south of England has really been hit.
