How bad was it? Hope everyone is OK!

It's the worst storm I've ever been in, but then I was still living up north when the great storm of 1987 struck southern England. Seven people died this weekend across England and Wales, all hit by falling trees or other debris. Even in central Cambridge there are houses missing slates, and trees missing branches, round every corner. The BBC have more details.

On the other hand, Force 8 winds make it still pretty minor compared to the sort of stuff that goes on in a Gulf of Mexico hurricane season.
