Strongest winds since the St Judes storm in these parts I would say.

I would not have minded if it was an actual fire, but to do a fire drill in these conditions (gusting to 60mph) is foolish and dangerous. Then making us students stand under some trees when large bits of branch have come off in the area. If one had come down...

I travel a lot on planes and every time there is turbulence I feel like in a roller coaster...but with those winds that would be worse than the Wild Mouse in Blackpool

Recorded 71 mph so far. So the local forecast is a bit off :)

Lady who died in Wolverhamton was apparently hit by a Shop sign being blown off the side of a shop.

RIP. Awful.

81 mph gust at Weybourne in Norfolk, unusually strong gusts for this far south

2h30m after starting the descent from FL400 flight EK17 to Manchester finally has touched down at Gatwick - amazing amount of extra fuel on that baby.

On our A320's we say a tonne of fuel per half hour of holding. Not much fuel used in the descent (N1's back at idle), starts to drink it when in the hold. A fairly heavy aircraft won't be thrown around like an empty A320, which can sometimes feel like flying a crisp packet on a windy day!
