    They did put out warnings just many ignored thinking they knew better.

    People ignore warnings that aren't red as employers etc still expect you to be at work. So everyone operates as normal.

    It's kind of like a domino effect. If important things like schools and transport stop, everything else follows

    Definitely not used to the southerly winds here in macroom it's getting wild & rain coming down hard now. Hard to believe it's not peaking for another 4/5hrs. Wind whistling now

    I'm not taking this at all seriously, maybe I should but it just feels like it'll be nothing more than a standard issue windy night with rain.

    You make it sound so cosy! I'm really just looking forward to another night in bed listening to some wind and rain. Midlands.

    Still calm here in co kk. As expected. No rain yet either. Although the big tree at the end of the garden is starting to rustle slightly. The anticipation! I'm loving the updates.

    I can’t tell the difference between the two forums.got a bollocking for offering the real weather heads a trampoline for sale.was throwing in a half bag of borrowed beach sand to weigh her down and all to sweeten the deal.
    Two titles are the same.
