    Spoke to soon. I asked a mate if he wanted to head out tomorrow.
    He declined "because of the storm"

    Attempts to whip up hysteria again this evening as "Storm Elsa batters country" have fallen flat.
    Have they overdone it and are we suffering from weather warning fatigue.

    Maybe reaction to wind is subjective. It's only scary if you buy in to their fearmongering and convince yourself that it's scary
    Be afraid. Be very afraid.

    Maybe you just have an agenda and are continuing to try and push it. Fearmongering? Laughable.

    Wouldn't chance it. A status yellow warning has just been issued for the whole country. For fog.

    Yet another national emergency for Operation Fear. Fortunately nobody was killed by the trampoline but we must be ever anxious, scared and prepared for the worst.

    These terrifying storms have now become a near weekly occurrence.
    Was out and about today and it was a bit windy and raining a bit but what used to be normal enough weather has not become extreme weather.
    Events cancelled again everywhere and terrified people afraid to go outside.
