Storm Watch 2013 **LIVE**

[Kumquat]

I have had FLOODS in my living room this evening. Unfortunately they were from my wife's eyes when that 16 year old jug eared sweaty just murdered a ballad on Xfactor. Should I have her tested?

Floods from my girlfriends eyes are a regular occurence chez Kumquat. Takes only the slightest thing. She mentioned wrapping up warm because the storm was coming. I merely said "It's lucky we've both got plenty of fat on us isn't it?"

You could have warned them, now if they drown you have blood on your hands

I am absolved from guilt, and will be informing The Darwin Awards people.

So Southern Trains are 'highly unlikely that we will run any services before at least 0900 tomorrow morning.'

So just a normal service then

A light breeze, at best/worst in deepest Somerset. Dry also.

 

[Smeagull]

Just had a bloody roof tile come off. At this rate I'm not gonna have any left!

Breaking news

Newhaven beach has been closed off so no cars can enter!

Just been down there and it's VERY windy! If it gets worse later I'm gonna go down again

Will your house be moving to Sussex?

 

[Pinkie Brown]

Sensible decision or throwing up the white flag?

Why are there ANY trees that could fall onto a track?

Sensible, if they ran a train and it caused injuries they would be screwed

Good question. In past BR days, trackside vegetation was always kept in check. You only have to look out the window of any train to see thats not the case now. As you leave Bexhill going east, the branches of the tree's rub against the carriage windows!

Just been out to check Hove seafront. The Brunswick pub is currently cash only because their card machine can't connect, but they're bravely trading on through it. (King's Festive for only £2.50 a pint as well. I was tempted to sit out the storm there.)

 

[Plake]

IN!! For getting smashed in a seafront pub all night then going for a paddle.

Trees help prevent landslip, don't they?

This. An example of this is on the Swindon - Cardiff railway line. They removed the trees from the lineside embankent - then for 6 months after, the line was prone to flooding and landslides.

All bin collections in East Sussex tomorrow have been cancelled.

Apparently, some TIT has taken their child to Newhaven beach to 'watch the waves' and said child has been swept in.

The Newhaven Lifeboat is currently in attendance.
