coldel Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 ...as in storm Katie for causing havoc, glad I parked outside my house last night, my neighbours car is not faring so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Yeah it was pretty viscious down on the south coast, the harbour has a live weather station, it recorded gusts of 60 knots and 50 knot constant. I bet there is some destruction out and about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 Gatwick is in a bit of trouble, landings aborting then heading off to northern parts of England to land. Maybe I missed it, but not much in the way of weather warnings about this yesterday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) I think it was worse than they expected. I did see weather warnings, but forecast was for 40mph. Edited March 28, 2016 by Jetpilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEUS Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 There were warning about it on the country file weather last night but that's the only time I saw anything about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebized Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Bloody ridiculous building a single skin brickwork wall that high in a relatively exposed position, even if it included piers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEUS Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Bloody ridiculous building a single skin brickwork wall that high in a relatively exposed position, even if it included piers. Exactly what I thought when I saw the picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnH Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I put up a new fence panel on Friday just before the storm... luckily it stayed in place so my handy work is obviously better than I expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddyZed Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Usually they bang on about storms for ages in the paper and on the news, when it comes around it's usually only a bin that's blown over. But with Katie, there wasn't too much warning (or maybe there was, and I just missed it?) but it was pretty bad down South. A mate of mine at work was flying back from Holiday yesterday - the plane attempted to land at Heathrow but due to the crosswinds had to be diverted to Manchester and then had to get National Express back down to London!

Ekona Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 A chair! My god, was anyone hurt? Much damage? Have you put in a claim for compensation? Stay strong my friend, always here for you. I know your pain, as I checked my garden last night and found that a small disused plant pot had been sadly knocked over as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bradders- Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I think a few leaves might have fell out the gutter too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
