    Yeah, a few that were "strong enough" to be named and hit hurricane level winds but burned out pretty quickly. Kirk pulled a U turn and was heading for Europe. I think two of them were tropical storm level at best.

    Leslie is actually still out there but isnt going to bother anyone by the looks of it.

    Disney World reckons it'll be open tomorrow

    The BBC had footage of some mad lads flying through Milton to measure wind speed, looked spicy.

    Meanwhile LegoLand shut their "sky rider" due to wind on a 30c day of pure sunshine last time we went.

    I'm watching ABC Tampa and they interviewed a guy from Dundee on the beach and even I had no idea what the fuck he was saying.

    Everyone legs it out of state and comes back to a couple of bins knocked over and a dog in a tree.

    I saw a wind map thing yesterday and it showed max gusts of 100 mph hitting Tampa, which is bad, I guess, but we get similar wind speeds in the UK most Autumn / winters, and we don't get told to evacuate.

    It's not even that bad a storm, the Septics just need to stop making things out of match sticks.

    BBC weather is currently reporting 4,000mph winds for my area so the yanks are clearly pathetic.

    Stayed well below us in the end. Bit of rain and the wind finished off the gazebo that was on its last legs from Helene.
