just to add, i wonder how many trees have been damaged or severely weakened by this storm. all it takes is for one of those trees to finally give up the ghost on a breezy day, days or even weeks down the line, come crashing down on a car and the so-called "non-event" claims another victim. i've seen it happen

"a non-event" "a downgrade" "over-hyped"........ really?...... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-24701419

lol same here. predicted wind speeds for here (via netweather-http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=wind;sess=) are not much lower than you! my house is surrounded by trees, some of which have seen better days. especially the ones over the road (main A281 between horsham and guildford) a couple of them have come down in the past couple of years, in winds nowhere near as high as those predicted!! -

very true nick. what some people seem to forget is that the models are showing us snapshots at 3 hour intervals. 3 hours is a long time to be battered by a storm and a lot of damage can occur in that time -

it could well be. if so, we do have plenty of warning so do the right thing. put anything away which might blow away. don't go out if you don't have to. (as exhilarating as a storm can be- a smack on the head by a large tree branch will ruin your day) most of all DON'T GO CAMPING!!
