16. Yes - when I say 'our', I mean 'southern England'

Fri Feb 18, 2022, 06:22 PM

Feb 2022

not one very close to me (though the Southampton ferry is under 10 miles away). No big problems locally. 3 dead in the UK, all on the roads from falling trees or debris, and in Ireland a council worker was hit by a tree as he was clearing up from the storm. At least 5 dead on the continent so far.
