In the South West, the red weather warning was in place – and that risk-to-life warning, encouraging people to stay at home, was heeded.

There needs to be shut downs for storms.

If they're having this much trouble with a category 2 storm I would hate to see the response after a category 4 much less a 5
Not to mention the type of damage you could have if they got hit with a EF 3 or 4 tornado, with a long ground track. And as far as walking in a downtown area like Central London with gust 70 +… you are not a kite you are not designed to fly. Apparently no one has explained the " Monroe " effect of structures and wind to office workers ., and if they did they weren't paying attention to it evidently
anything anywhere can happen in these times coming. Be prepared
πThick people who go too near raging seas for the fun of it when even professional fishermen who need to be be at sea to make a not well living won't go out in it. Too easy to be swept away. Yet landlubber fools stand where they and sometimes are swept away. All it takes is for a surge. A freak wave. Or be blown into the briney straight to Dalvey Jones locker π
My sympathy to the innocent people who lost their lives.
WOW WOW WOW!!! Powerfully dangerous.. God help us all πΊπ²πΊπ²
thebwelsh dont half overreact

WIPED OFF THE MAP
YOU IDIOTS LAUGH WHEN YOUR NEW PLAGUES COME NO MORE LAUGHING AGAIN.
Saw a plastic bag fly past me the other day, damn i am lucky to be alive.
Europe is very lucky that it doesn't get – at least yet – storms of the strength of hurricanes / typhoons / cyclones that are so catastrophic in other places in the world.
Strange the name of the storm is exact as may family name
Every year the weather gets worse and worse and still, the corporate media won't talk about climate change..looks like I am going to live long enough to see everything go to heck.
Also if you are a climate change denier don't bother talking to me I won't waste my time arguing with the mentally handicapped.
This is God's punishment
We will rebuild.
It also destroyed my greenhouse
In Cornwall it just felt like another storm. We get them pretty badly in the north coast quite frequently. Sad to hear about the loss of lives.
Sorry to the people of UK,may GOD in His mercy protect you,God manifests Himself in many ways.Get the message.
The propaganda has to go on: A person in the midst of a storm …with that useless symbolic mask. Insane.
Can someone get one of them noodle guy air things that they usually have at like car washes I wanna see if itβs the storm that makes it go crazy or the rise of taxes

In wales it was so bad
In the US we would call that event a hurricane! Stay safe Britain!
Hope this bit of humor finds you well. 6:05 looks like the reporter is offering the, 'wind sock', to the guy for warmth. ref: the mat on the reporter's head.
I live near New York area US. I volunteer as a storm spotter for our NWS. Anyone who denies climate change is insane. In 2012 We had Hurricane Sandy which was almost catastrophic. I live in Greenwich, Connecticut and most coastal homes were damaged and or destroyed.
It was not even that bad a bit windy thatβs all my fence did not even get blown down

My friend had her house damaged,the wall under window ca Ed in and she was close to the window she was lucky,and all the other windows in her house went through that was one mean storm. I saw our neighbour attempting to drive in that crazy storm,he hadnβt even got as far as the drive and reversed back to safety wasnβt taking no chances. Feel so sorry for those lives lost and homes damaged,we can rebuild homes we canβt rebuild our lives back,love each other
