    Well all our chairs have fallen over, apart from that, my house is untouched.
    Walking home from school though, I saw broken plant pots, Roofs and fences. My school is also closed for lower school tomorrow due to tiles loose on our North Block, but its open for higher school >=[

    Also, is it true we might be getting snow next week? Ive heard it, and whats with all this wierd weather? we've had like NO frost!

    Thats sad becuase I love the wind especially when it knocks you around and you can't stand straight.

    It killed two people in my town.

    A wall blew over and crushed one woman, and a lorry overturned on the motorway and crushed a car with a man inside. There have been many more deaths in Stockport today, but I don't have details on them.

    Curse you, Mother Nature.

    The fence to my garden has completely come off due to the winds, all of our bins were strewn across the road too. I saw a billboard which had been ripped from its stand and was in the middle of the road. This wind must of been stronger than I thought. It was also lame cause all the trains are cancelled. Lots of big trains stations in London have been closed down, so barely half of the trains are running. And if they are, there friggin late.

    Well the wind was literally swaying my apartment. Seriously. I'm on the top floor and I was scared the roof would be torn off any any given moment or something.

    It was really windy earlier, I was nearly blown into the road! I couldn't stop laughing as I fought to stay on my feet!

    I was up all last night so at about 3am the wind just hit like a hammer blow and didn't let up for hours. Was quite shocking and there was my aussie mate saying how they'd had a nice shower that afternoon. I was cursing the weather even more later when it threw a motorcycle in my back yard across the yard (muggins here had to pick that up, strip the shed of it's flag pole and drag half a tree down.)

    Thanks to the wind my flatmate couldn't get to her Kylie concert in Manchester because Birmingham new street was closed. Had to take for a Modern China to cheer her up!

    On a lighter note a washing machine and a fence landed on a van in front of my flat.

    Crazy wind, sounds like. It snowed here in Chapel Hill, NC today. It rarely snows in this part of the state, but it looked nice for a while.

    It gets windy back home, though.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    I just heard on the news that the wind claimed the life of a 2 y/o boy and his nanny ended up in hospital when a wall was blown over on top of them.

    I was searched by the police. I don't know whether that had anything to do with the weather though
