WARNING!! Dangerous Driving Conditions

[Eighteeteewhy]

Just a heads up, gale force winds this morning.
On my way into work I think there was more tree branches on the road than on the trees!

[Dave Hedgehog]

where abouts?

[Eighteeteewhy]

South Wales/Hereford

[theboss]

Yep, it's certainly wild out there (South Shropshire). I'm just about to head out of the door myself. Drive carefully guys.

[Rawwr]

Somewhat blowy in Cambridge this morning.

[Shaw Tarse]

I've got wind too.

I certainly hear a lot of hot air coming from you often enough.

Swindon blowing a gale too, and I suspect the M4 is going to be a blast.

[Tom H]

M3 too, windy and rainy

[collateral]

Sounds pretty brutal out there, but I've yet to risk it.

Mind those cross winds, chaps

[Aizle]

The QE2 bridge is closed. All traffic is using the tunnels.

[Eighteeteewhy]

Scotland is also CLOSED

[sawman]

Takes more than a little wind or half an inch of snow to close Scotland!

We've had a tree fall onto a car down here.. Pretty bloody windy!

Is that what caused your car to be so low?...

[garos]

I'm in Angus and never known winds like this before, it really is extreme again today as it has been on and off over the last month. Mild though

I'm so low, a tree couldn't get as low as me

I usually bike into work, but decided to take the car today. Luckily it was very quiet on the roads into London (M40/A40). Even the car was getting buffeted quite badly though.

[OlberJ]

It's hit 102mph through in Edinburgh.

Weird, there's hardly a breath of wind in Aberdeen.
