    I just checked, and I should expect

    Quote:

    Hurricane force winds

    Humidity

    69%

    Pressure

    1009 mb

    Visibility

    Good

    Temperature feels like 4°C / 39°F

    Precipitation is not expected

    Hurricane force winds from the north east, 6259 MPH

    Sounds like a good drying day.

    Bah - that's nothing! In Yorkshire, we've got 16,281 MPH winds! :laugh: (I knew I shouldn't have had that bean for dinner.)

            Many a religious text has predicted the apocalypse, but in the end it was the BBC Weather app who predicted it correctly. But lo and behold, people laugh and tell you not to worry.

                  [What if Earth suddenly stopped spinning?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gp5G1QG6cXc) The winds predicted by the Beeb are 6-16 times more powerful than the winds described in this video, to say nothing of the temperatures! :omg:

                      There have been a few odd glitches in things recently; a couple of days ago the Freeview guide for BBC1 just described it as C-Beebies for the entire day. My paranoid tendencies fear this is the Ruskies testing out their ability to hack stuff. Imagine the chaos if the entire country braced for 14,971 mph winds (as my area was predicted yesterday), temps in the 400F region (ditto) and nothing but C-Beebies on the telly! :wtf: :omg:
