    It's election time in Denmark, so after getting blown into the sidewalk and taking a dive over my bike I then got hit in the back by a local politician. Made of paper glued to a cardboard. Ow.

    Some guy got struck by a part of scaffolding outside the shop we were in, which is how we found it it was a little more than "pretty windy", but other than general transportation issues and a few deadly accidents it wasn't terrible.

    This is just so weird. I have never seen a really strong wind storm here.

    Most people tend to heed weather warnings too. So they end up unaffected, mostly.

    I had no idea you lived in George Osborne's voting district.

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    In Tartu (Estonia) the wind blew a little harder than before and some trees fell down. I don't think anyone was hurt though.
