I saw that on today's weather forecast on Sky news. It's better to stay indoors if possible on Monday.
It was very hot today with temps above 28 °C.

People online are freaking me out about the storm.I have torches, batteries and candles ready and I need to charge my kindle and mobile phones in case we have loss of power.
AMBER EARLY WARNING of WIND for southern England, south Wales, the Midlands and Eastern England.
A very intense low pressure system is forecast to run across the country early on Monday, bringing the potential for an exceptionally windy spell of weather. At the same time, persistent, heavy rain could cause some surface water flooding.
There is the potential for gusts of 60-80 mph quite widely and locally over 80 mph.
There is some uncertainty in the timing, intensity and exact track of the low so keep up to date with the forecast.
Be prepared for the risk of falling trees as well as damage to buildings and other structures. Disruption to transport and power supplies is also possible.
I'm really sceptical about this. Hopefully they're wrong like they usually are.
You can't really stay indoors when you have to go to work....boo.

Well I just read a bit more & it's meant to be worse than the hurricane of 1987.
During that storm my stepdad slept through the night whilst his roof was blown off. Haha.

A woman online who knows an astrophysicist is saying he thinks it's going to be bad. I hope people are sensible and don't get hurt but I'm also kind of excited about it.

Lets hope that they are wrong and that it hits Northern France and not the UK.

Yes, anyone who could be in the storm's path, please make the necessary preparations and be careful! I'd rather buy supplies to have on hand just in case, then end up getting caught unprepared.

With the weather warnings out for tomorrow and Monday in my area of the UK for winds that may knock small structures and trees down, I've made the decision to bring the foster guinea-pigs into the house first thing in the morning. As they don't deal with temp changes ever so well, this will be their home until they go back to the shelter xxx

That is a wise decision as many animals are in danger when the weather gets wild.

They're saying there will be significant structural damage & transport disruptions but I don't understand what we're meant to do. We can't just stay indoors all day....jobs to do, bills to pay.

It was windy enough here last night. I bought some privacy screens for the cat enclosure a couple months ago and half of them were destroyed last night. I don't know whether to cut the rest down now or to leave them and hope at least one survives.
