Windstorm in Europe

[gaelic cowboy]

Is this the difference between European and US media?

No the english telly was shouting across all channels about how something we call an Irish summer was on its way for ages.


On a more serious note I believe there was a lot of power disruption and trees knocked in the south of england.

I found the wind pretty annoying. I have this one window without something that can keep it shut so I usually keep it shut with a 'leitz folder'(Not sure what this is called in other countries; Basically something to collect papers in). This time it didn't keep the window shut so I had to barricade the window with 2 stacks of books.

The greater annoyance was the thunder around 1-2 am that was really loud.

The power went out for 2 minutes! :D Exciting stuff for Europe XD

We had a few knocked over trees, a road blocked here and there but I don't think it was very severe. The only funny thing was the power going out, which caused all the house alarms to go off at the same time around this area.
