So i guess next week we will have shocking headline news such as,battered Britain etc..
Can't wait till we get a flake of snow,or the temperature drops to -1 Frozen Britain,Snow stormed UK.
Wife just reminded me she's on an early flight to Montreal out of Heathrow on Monday.
Do they ever cancel flights due to a strong breeze?
I hope she likes "sport" flying
Seriously though, in terms of winds, most modern aircraft will operate around the 30kt to maybe 40kt cross wind speed depending on size. After this, its a no go.
If the wind is blowing straight down the runway, you might see operations till maybe 50kts. It can cause delays, so I would check on the web on Sunday and Monday am. I guess most of the storm will be well north by Monday AM so you might get away with it.
I hope my house is still sanding when I get back off hols on a serious note tho glad I ain't there if its going to be as bad as they reckon it could possibly be.
A light gust, partial blue sky and sunny here on the south coast, my Mrs has taken advantage of it and hung the washing out. Ive taken precautions by ractchet strapping my car cover...lol

Hauling winds here in North Wales. My trees are looking manic. I've been out in the garden, and done my best to re-strengthen my fence. Fingers and toes crossed.
It's blowing quite well in bridgend at the moment , I'm off to Plymouth 7am tomorrow to have the map on my rally car tweaked , so hopefully won't have any problems towing a trailer there !
