Its out due to computer problems caused by the terrible UK weather. Areas in the UK have had over 5000 lightning strikes this week. Add to that 80-100mph winds, driving rain, sleet, hailstoes, and 50ft+ waves.

The bad UK weather has been well covered on FR.

I don’t think I’d want to land with that wind. I saw a vid of the waves. With this bunch in office here and around the World, I wouldn’t put anything past them.

Thanks for the reminder about the weather there. I saw this map, http://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/orthographic=-42.90,35.92,296 , (real-time wind map) a couple days ago. The wind NW of Great Britain was ready to take aim.
