Feeling the full force of it where I live in the East Mids as we speak.
Wheelie bins are out for tomorrows collection and are blowing all over, one
has already hit my car :-(
I went out and jammed it under my wood trailer to try and stop it but can
hear lots of stuff banging still about so not sure if that will work.
The wind is probably 60 mph and gusting, the rain is beating on the
windows..
I'm more worried about my trees, tbh. I have quite a lot of elderly fruit
trees that were planted when my house was built 60 years ago, so I'm
dreading seeing the damage in the morning. I have one damson tree that was
toppled by high winds a couple of years ago, but I propped it up and it's
still going along and fruiting, but I suspect that one might not make it
this time.
Got the tail end of "Storm Abigail" last week, which was more "up north" and
the weather here was awful but Storm Barney is doing its worst here atm.

Btw, who had the idea of naming them? Somehow it makes them seem worse.
