It’s a bank Holiday weekend in the UK so of course we are having 60 to 70 mile an hour winds and very heavy rain in places. We had a bit of rain this morning but not as bad as other areas. Scotland was one of the worst places with very stormy weather. And Leeds festival was hit yesterday, with video of tents blown away in the wind. A food festival was damaged and all the market stalls knocked down. And an articulated truck was almost blown over on the Humber Bridge near Hull. The bridge was later closed to traffic until the storm had passed.
The weather might be a bit better tomorrow, but it’s almost inevitable that with it being a bank Holiday that it won’t be that good. Meanwhile temperatures have been mostly cooler than normal this summer. We have had a few hot spells, but not to the same extent as recently. Apparently the jet stream is to blame and the remains of hurricanes from across the Atlantic coming our way. Happy holiday!
