    Sounds nasty, glad I'm not there at the moment. Stay safe everyone, I dont know what it is about the British but there is always this "must get to work at all costs mentality" - do yourself a favour, phone in a sickie and watch Trisha instead!

    Also, imagine the wind speed doubling and the amount of rain being three times as much and you'll have some idea what it was like during Wilma.

    It was terrible here lost quite a few roof tiles and 4 fence panels... Good job my mate works for Jewson Builders Merchants :wink:

    The MD of Birmingham International Airport was one the folks who sadly lost there lives here in UK

    We've had a really very mild snap of weather here for the time of year, but according to reports this stormy weather spells the end of the mild weather and a cold snap is on the way with possible snow to come....

    Freaky weather indeed :shock:
