The Met Office last night extended a severe weather warning, amid fears of hurricane-force winds of up to 100mph.

Forecaster Dan Williams said a “very serious situation” could trigger widespread destruction tomorrow going into Monday.

He urged against nonessential travel, saying: “We are looking at a very severe storm to hit the UK.”

The Government forecasters have not ruled out issuing a very rare red “take action” warning – reserved for the worst maximum severity storms – today or tomorrow.

I just bought a nice hatchet at a estate sale. BTW I hope this storm does not affect hubby getting home. He got stuck in Munich an extra day because of fog in Poland. Need him home safe, so we can batten the hatchets down together. :))

What? No mention of “Global Warming” anywhere in the article?

Liberal journalists are missing a great opportunity to once again blame me for the weather.

I keep my batten with me at all times. You should do that too, once you find it.

Weatherman Michael Fish, who famously failed to predict the severity of the Great Storm of 1987, says 'batten down the hatches'.

Flying hatchets could hurt somebody. Good thinking.
