A "very rare" red warning has been issued for Wales as Storm Eunice is set to batter the country on Friday.
Yup, all our sites are closing now for the day (i work in construction).
It is rare for red warnings as you say so the weather guys must be shitting themselves about it. I believe non essential workplaces / offices etc should close legally due to insurance issues and obviously staff getting to and from workplaces. The emergency services will be will be at a big stretch tomorrow.
Doesn't look good at all.
The centre of the low pressure seems to be tracking further north than originally forecast, so whilst that means less rain here, it also means the Bristol Channel will see the worst of the winds.
....which happen to coincide with high tide. Storm surge up the Severn it is. Not good.Originally Posted by The Bloop
Stay away from buildings scaffolded up…..
Hearing Newport schools are closing? Is this right?
RCT put out a tweet saying schools are closing tomorrow nothing about zooport yet
all trains are being cancelled in south wales tomorrow says network rail
Already got my order in for fence posts, fencing cement and ballast....
Teacher I know in Newport just told me…
Caerphilly schools are doing "remote learning"
Royal Mint Experience Llantrisant closing tomorrow, too.
Cardiff shutting now too…
Wow, then it must be bad.
This is when working from home sucks sometimes 😒
Had a lull in the rain & wind yesterday around 3pm so took myself off for a walk around Llandaff Fields/Pontcanna. Walking along the path towards the changing rooms and thought I'd go and have a look at the weir. Just approaching the river when heard an almighty crash, as if something had gone up or through a roof - couldn't see anything ,but walking back saw a half one the huge trees by the changing rooms right across the path. Absolutely massive. Must admit always took those 'be care' warnings about trees falling, but anyone under that would have been a goner !
The shipping forcast describes the wind coming as Violent Storm 11,the next step up being Hurricance Force 12.And its coming right up the Bristol Channel so I'm just waiting for the call to say my hosp appointment has been cancelled.
I've cancelled my sailing trip to Weston .
Possibly a daft question, but I’m working in Glastonbury tomorrow, how likely will it be that both Severn bridges close? I often see the m48 one closed but what about the m4 one?
At last.
Thank you, thank you.
Nailed on Closed.
All jobs my mates are on on the rails have been cancelled tomorrow as people will need to travel through the red area to get too and from jobs.
If you aren't already there can't you cancel? Or if its a need must job go up the long way home..
Yep, no such thing as a snow day for people who can work remotely
Announced both bridges close.
