Huge storm to hit the UK.

Northampton, England

Worse storm to hit the British mainland in recorded history is 12 hours away, Storm Eowyn. Wind speed of 110 mph are expected to hit the west coast of Ireland, with 50ft waves, and then smack the British territory of Northern Ireland. In 2016 a hurricane that formed off the coast of Africa went rogue and growled up to Ireland , the furthest north an Atlantic hurricane had ever got in Europe, the eye dissolving just 100 miles off the coast.. Now we have this one. 100 mph on the mainland here outside of the Scottish mountains is unheard of and very destructive to the type of housing we have. Yes we had a hurricane force storm that hit England in 1987 but that was from an unexpected crease in a low pressure This is different. Global warming is very real.

Hope it's not as bad as the Great Storm of 1703!

That is very scary. Yes, Global Warming is very real. How anyone can deny that is simply rediculous.

Some time since we crossed paths! My Facebook got hacked! Seems the north will be hit real bad compared to yourselves. Reports of no trains after 11am North of York by LNER.
