Red Weather Warning for Friday

[jamie_1875]

Red weather warning in place for tomorrow. Looking like schools and other places being closed, police issuing a do not travel statement. The BBC weather lady saying worst she has seen for high winds.

Hope everyone stays safe.

[Bishop Hibee]

All schools and nurseries in Edinburgh and Midlothian shut. All trains in Scotland off. My workplace is closed so , ahem, working from home.

My wife just text me to say Asda is rammed with people panic buying. People literally scrapping in the aisles over milk and bread😅😅😅😅😅

It's one day of wind FFS. What is wrong with people? Even if there are a few logistical issues to iron out afterwards it will be 2-3 days max until deliveries catch up. No one is going to starve.

For a nation that fetishes war and the 'blitz spirit' we'd be totally ****ed if such sacrifice was ever required again.

**My wife works there, she isn't one of the shoppers

[danhibees1875]

To be fair, I hadn't thought about panic buying but I do need to get some milk in soon... :dizzy:

Yip. I just had to drive to Bonnyrigg from Galahsiels and had 5 miles in the tank. Went to Asda and there was massive queues which is unheard of in Galahsiels.

I’m sure the alert said something about candles, torches, batteries and the like.

At the time I thought it was a sure fire invitation for folk to panic bulk buy and that it would be a hellish night in the supermarkets.

I mean it really was. Weather will be mild, dry and breezy by this time tomorrow and shops will still have plenty food (or rather they would have if idiots hadn't cleared the shelves in panic). It's like people don't realise that panic buying creates scarcity in such circumstances rather than there actually being shortages.

Aye if you need a pint of milk or whatever fine but folk were literally filling multiple trolleys in Asda last night. Pathetic.

Agreed. They’ll be shut for a few hours not days. Same with petrol, filling your car up yet the advice is not to travel.

I went to Lidl at Straiton last night (not panic buying - was going anyway) and saw people panic shoplifting :rolleyes::greengrin - really obvious too. Some boy shoving stuff up his hoodie and in his socks.

Went to Sainsburys afterwards as Lidl didn't have any neeps. Sainsbury's didn't either but there was a couple standing next to me when I was at the empty space for neeps and they were moaning at how greedy people must be to have cleared the shop of neeps. Normally, I'd agree but there was no hint of irony in their voices given each of them were carrying stacks of the trays of pre-mashed potatoes so high that they had their chin keeping them in place.

Lidl was ridiculous. Queues so big that you couldn't get into anything on the shelves.

[Lendo]

Was in Morrisons in Dalkeith earlier and hardly any milk left.

Lidl in Daley was like a scene from a post apocalyptic movie. Queue was about 40 minutes. I just popped in for Parmesan to make risotto.

They would just call the train woke and say that it wouldn’t have happened back in the 1930s despite they themselves being born in the 1960s.

My work have said there's no expectation that staff work from home but can choose to do so. I have something that needs doing I'm choosing to work. Judging by people's statuses on Teams most are working.

I think parents have been told by schools that they need to home school today (my wife's friend has been told that by her kids' school at least) so that might have something to do with it.

Absolutely, we have had a few disagreements over the years with our management regarding severe weather. Thankfully they now have a very common sense policy which agrees with Government advice. If it is a red warding and you shouldn't travel then don't and that then leads to the office closing. It is very rare so it makes perfect sense and the vast majority work from home and will continue to do so today. My lad is a bus driver and they were asked to travel into depots despite there being no buses going out. Absolutely moronic in my opinion having them travel in to sit and do nothing. No issue once the weather passes getting them to come in for the remainder of shifts but they put out the mixed message that it is too dangerous to travel on a bus not safe enough for workers to travel to depots against govt advice

750k homes without power in Ireland, 250k in Northern Ireland and 20k in central Scotland. The strongest gusts ever recorded in parts of Ireland. Trees down and tiles in various parts of Edinburgh. If it was business as usual people would have died today. 100% the correct call to put a red warning and stay at home message.

Dunno where you stay but in Leith my fence is currently propped up with wooden pallets and blocks of wood to stop it flying into the house while the sound outside is like a plane taking off

According to a wind tracking website there have been gusts of 84mph in my postcode

To put it in context a Hurricane needs to be at least 74mph

[Pretty Boy]

It does feel a bit of a damp squib but I'm sitting in my house catching up on Only Connect and The Traitors with a big bowl of crisps next to me.

The angle of the trees I can see outside suggest it would probably feel a bit different if I'd had to go out in it.

It takes some force to cause that damage. Doesn't bear thinking about that a person takes the impact of that force.

My business is in a similarish building to that, probably the same part of the world. I'm a stoic sort and took a bit of convincing to close for the day. Very glad with hindsight, stuff flying off roofs and onto people isn't a crazy notion. Fortunately not many people out there and most have heeded the instructions to stay indoors.

Free exercise for me this morning chopping up the destroyed fence.

Thankfully no other damage to report unlike the poor folk that had trees fall through their roof.

Thankfully the warnings were spot on and no doubt saved a hell of a lot of people a lot of hassle and injury.

And that’s before you consider the impact on the emergency services if everyone had just went about their business as normal yesterday.
