A motherfucking hurricane is coming for the south of England.

Since when does this region get hurricanes? Netherland never got a hurricane (The system will move over NL)

I'm going out to saltdean at about midnight - that's where the best sea conditions happen.

... I was literally just in that exact spot 20 minutes ago, I live about a 2 minute walk inland from there

I am now coated in salt, as is my camera
I'll post some pictures if any of them were any good. Sky was the same colour as the spray so it didn't show up so well.

Has it already passed? We had a bit of wind and some rain but now it's just back to the usual grey skies as far as i can tell

[Genericenemy]

I'm excited for this storm as if snow were falling. I think I've got a thing for carnage and destruction.

I'm sure the sea didn't look as menacing as in those photos, they are unrelated.

Kids aren't generally the brightest of the bunch but I don't think I would have gotten myself into such a vulnerable position at that age.

I hope they can find him but the odds are not favourable.

[QUOTE=Ishwoo;42656331]it's hilarious how everyone thinks wind is going to blow down brick and mortar. if anything America would be worse off because of all the wooden houses. Everyone always blows these warnings out of proportion and seems to think it's the start of the apocalypse every time the met office tells us to be careful.[/QUOTE]

But parts of (brick) houses being blown down by wind is actually a common occurence when it gets windy in the UK..

[Cabbage]

It's literally still here

East Herts, no wind. at all.

If Facepunch goes down, we know Garry is dead and that it's coming for me next. But I have noticed I can now hear wind outside of my window where I couldn't an hour ago.
