Storm Eunice: Britain battered by 122mph winds in 'strongest storm in over 30 years'
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- BRITAIN has today been battered by killer 122mph winds - stronger than the gales of the Great Storm of 1987 - and there's MORE to come.
Storm Eunice has already wreaked destruction in just hours - downing power lines, blowing over lorries, uprooting trees and tearing a huge hole in London's O2 - with Brits told to stay at home.
The severe conditions, which sparked two rare red weather warnings, include "danger to life" cautions about the risk of "flying debris".
Today's gales are believed to be the highest ever recorded in England, with only two stronger gusts in Scotland in 1989 and 1986.

Considering we have been told to stay indoors because of a danger to life. I am amazed at people have gone out in it. The fear of being washed out to sea doesn't seam to hit home to them.
Ah well with all the suicides Nd people strung out on drink or drugs or both. Clearly lots of people feared Nd fear living in this messed up society that once was our beautiful nations
People were told to stay in for a virus that killed hardly any healthy people but people can do what they want. State does not dictate what free people can do

Ist doch egal. Nass wird er sowieso. Und auf diese Weise bietet er dem Wind weniger Angriffsfläche. 🤗
We had a similar problem here in Belgium, in the past 3 days the wind has been VERY intense. I wish the best for everyone and that no one gets affected by wind. These winds are no jokes. In my town, the fire department has been VERY busy trying to clear roads with fallen trees.

What is the matter with people when your told to keep away from high waves ???
They want to be on TV to show off to their superficial friend's 📺
The weather seems to be getting more extreme every where
Ohhh well.
And it’s Trump’s fault
When you have been warned there may be a risk to life, and a few dozen people stand at the sea front in Wales, angers me. Those who engage in putting their safety at risk should not be helped by emergency services. Still it may be a great story to tell at the wake by the other morons who made it.
Ha, I agree
Good point.
Don't cry
Sadly, they draw resources away from the emergency services who might be needed to help real people in trouble. Personally, if you intentionally put yourself in trouble - you should be heavily fined
Yes, lets all lead boring, risk free lives where the biggest excitement is a take away on a Friday night. After all not taking any risks is what made this country great.
okay I'm wondering why there are old people just strolling about in this storm
You've got to take the dog out sometime I suppose.

@John Chapman don't call something a pandemic unless it actually is one

I'm more scared of the government. At least I can see where to avoid this. The government likes to creep up on you, smiling, with a hammer behind it's back.
Like the vilan in a psicho movie. Think he's finally dead then creeps up from behind
Freak show traitors no better than any government sure.. Some would say the government make the rules 'Then you become awake and understand they don't someone else does' But having says that it aint the government who is durty minded freakz
You can lead the horse to poison hoping he/she would have the common sense themselves not to drink it but sure blah
The Govt (or rather those in power over them) has engineered even this. Our weather has been modified and manipulated for decades. They can 'engineer' any extreme weather: tornado, monsoon, storms, drought, tsunami, you name it... note always perfect weather for Royal weddings and the like... then they cleverly blame it on 'global warming'. An excellent book by Elana Freeland titled 'Chemtrails, HAARP and the Full Spectrum Dominance of Planet Earth' gives the full dark picture.

it's crazy here too. had to pick up neighbour's bins on the way back from the shop
Storm of the century every 6 month's.
People are forgetting workplaces didn’t close so obviously people still need to go to work.. and with that obviously they have to go outside 🤦♀️
This is REAL Force of NATURE. Taking Risks in this is to Your Own PERILOUS Actions.

Not in Worcestershire, we had a good breeze, with the occasional stronger gust, but nothing like other parts of the UK.
Bless the two girls for tipping the trolley in the phone box
Millennial style vandalism 🤣
122mph wind was one gust reported on the Isle of White. It was no different than any other winter storm !!
Seemed to do more damage here then previous storms have done in recent years but still compared to the hurricane-force storms we had going back 20-30 years ago it wasn't even remotely comparable, just a lively Gale and not alot more then that to be honest, even the winds today have been gusting almost as hard at times and we only got a Yellow warning at very short notice not Amber or Red Warnings in advance or storm name given.
The Lord said" if there are 10 just people at a place,they will be safe".You just have to believe in Him.

Morons who would expect to be rescued if they were swept away
Much safer to hide under your bed.
A girl in my school, her dad was swept away by a wave while sitting on the sea front during a storm. He sadly died but you bet I learnt his lesson very quickly.
I'm in Weest London, in a loft conversion and can hear the roof being torn off right above me. There are tiles flying everywhere and hopefully no one is injured by any of it. Not sure standing so close to the water edge is the wisest thing.
Shame about that big ole' tree :(
R.I.P Tree 🙏
Yes!
Health and safety says we have to cut all the old trees down
My thoughts too!been growing there for decades and a freak storm uproots and kills it within minutes.😞
I visited Bude last month and sat opposite that big true. It was beautiful 😥
It seems bad there I’m only in wales and it’s nothing like that here, I’m on the mountains and the sun is shining
I’m in Florida.
Here in ponytypool there are quite a few trees down. A few power lines down in Carleon as well.
I'm in illinois
I'm in Australia
Yeah, It's pretty bad. I'm in the West Midlands and we only discovered an hour ago that we have a hole in our roof due to the wind ripping off slate tiles.
The 122mph claim is highly suspect. It is massively out of line with winds being recorded elsewhere on the south coast, even within a few miles of the Needles.
What you taliking about...a whole tile got blown clean off the roof!!
@@davedobbschannel 🤣
Normally it's around something like 70 or 80 mph.
Doubt it's over 100.
120mph wind can blow you vertically upwards as it is above terminal velocity, it was probably a one of guts, if at all.
Yea it's total b.s.
They are trying to panda to there own fear mongering lies
Sorry but this country needs to get a grip this is nothing but a breeze in other parts of the world.
Project fear
I live in london quite a distance to any seaside and my neighbours roof has come down and a tree in the road its crazy
I'm within a mile of the coast and the odd gust has shaken the building (top floor flat). Other than that, it's not really much different to a normal rainy day where I am. That was this morning. Now we have bright sun, barely a cloud in the sky and wind to match.
I live in Southend right on the seaside, we didn't get much wind because we're on the outskirts and below sea level
It wasn't the strongest for 30 years inland only for exposed coastal headlands, there's been several storms since 1990 which have recorded higher wind speeds across built up areas of southern England.
Well I'm in north London and East Harfordshire and never seen wind like it here before and never seen so many Trees down with landed on a Van. When I lived in Kent I did see similar stong winds around year 2000 but never here.
@@HOLLASOUNDS the October 2000 storms were what I particularly had in mind, we had wind gusts around London in excess of 80-90mph during the night in that storm and 2 years later in 2002 was at least as bad as Eunice if not worse, certainly higher sustained wind speeds.
Eunice was more like the St Jude storm in 2013 in terms of its sudden gusty/squally nature albeit it lasted a few hours longer so had more time to do damage!
@@adamknight7904 I remember the 2000s storms because nextdoor green house glass was flying off and frisbeeing through the air and probably would of killed someone if they flew into people. Last time there was substantial with stong egnugh to not be able to stand up was in Stevenage about around 2010 but cant remember when but knocked Me off My feet and I fell over.
I don't think that's it- It's the strongest because it's pretty much cross-country, everywhere's being hit at the same time and it's been pretty bad all over.
I really don't get why people wish to stand or walk in this.
Curiosity
i wish i was at the coast right now. never seen what waves look like against the barrage before.
Fun
Exactly at 02:30 waiting to get washed away... Idiots
And that utterly pathetic bloke walking along promenade in bloody shorts aswell, what a complete nurd 🤪..with a bit of luck he will have a bad flu now!!
Watch out for the discarded mask Tornados
Get booster blown *NOW.*
I'm so bored of these snowflakes who think a bit of cloth on their face is the Third Reich.
Just shut up, you mental.
This was a scary storm for those in the UK, Netherlands and even Germany. Was like a hurricane or something. I heard a comment by a guy being interviewed in the NL who thought the roof of his house was going to blow off.... and people were still out in it. Some tourists in London even shopping along Oxford Street and continually getting blown down in the process, people taking videos of the monster waves on the the piers and nearly getting swept away.
It WAS a hurricane. The first since 1987.
I don't know why the media labelled it a storm.
70mph gale force
80mph storm force
90mph and over is a hurricane.
Same Germany is true
One thing:3 TREES FELL IN NETHERLANDS
My whole fence is gone btw
Always that one in shorts no matter the weather
I wondered if my electricity bill will come down now !
No, the only thing to come down will be the power cables, and you'll end up paying more !😉
Won't be long before the press call this omistorm
Lol. Stay indoors for the next month.
Why do people record in portrait mode 🤦🏻♂️
The Sun will be blaming this on the Russians.
It's that flaiming putin up to his tricks. Oh putin will you ever learn?
Sorry but near 1:30 was that guy really in blasted shorts?!
God I thought it was bad in London, but woahhhh. The O2 arena has been ripped into by the wind, a man has died in Ireland a tree fell on him, where I live in surrounded by trees and one has already fell down. This is scaryyyy
I am on the 37th floor in Croydon we panicked so much with the building swaying sooooo badly that had to leave the flat. It was terrifying!!!! Hope the worst has passed now
And I've just done a record 213.5mph on my ride into work on my motorcycle, and nobody mentioned that?
@@Upndouin OH MY GOD I hope it’s all okay, that’s terrifying
@ASL 72 lol.....erm the speed limit mate 😉
How could a tree fall on someone. Don't people look about their surroundings. Probably too busy on their phones. Oblivious to any danger.

Getting windy here in Manchester Eunice is arriving
Certainly has on the North Liverpool Coast, stay safe
Yes stay safe
Isn't it called a hurricane if there are sustained winds of more than 74mph ?
Hurricane has little to do with windspeed. It's about the way the wind was formed, hence 1987 was a storm and not a 'hurricane'. Michael Fish was right.
@@opalfruits8596 From first hand experience, not even close. Today we had strong gusts for about 2 hours and light winds between them and thereafter. In '87 I lived within 5 miles of where I am now and we had sustained winds as fast as today's gusts all night, and a much higher local peak. Other places and personal experiences could show a different story, but overall seems far less severe destruction today. Maybe more widespread light destruction today, as the '87 was concentrated on the coast. Where I am, if I hadn't heard the news, in my immediate area which overlooks the sea, it didn't seem anything out of the ordinary of a regular high-wind day which you can expect 2-3 times a month in winter. '87 was a once in 300 year event.
Live at the top of a big hill near Bristol.
It was windier yesterday than it was today, supposed to be a red area but practically nothing.
That’s weird. Heard on a site my mates at they had a 20ft container office blow off from 1st story and flip over, so was proper nuts for some but I had not much out of the ordinary at home
It's the trampolines I feel sorry for 😳
They'll bounce back
Someone loses a roof tile and everyones loses their minds.
4 people died
A flying roof tile is a lethal weapon...
It can be when it's coming at you at a 100 mph
you peeps don't know how to take a joke.
Why those people by the beach are even sightseeing the storm. It's dangerous!
Coz there certi bro
Because it wasn't even that bad. The news over sensationalised and fear mongering made it seem like we was having a major event.
@@damian597 but have you seen the waves? its huge and strong. You can get caught up and swept by it all of a sudden. The storm isnt as worst as a tornado but it is bad, even in downtown London, people are carried on air by strong winds. There is also a video of huge trees that have fallen and parts of houses/buildings taken out. Stay safe!
@@damian597 Tell that to those who were killed
@@chuckabutty888 what's the point they can't hear.
Just a breezy day in Scotland. Weather is about average for Aberdeen this time of year.
this is a once in a chance storm i loved experiencing it
Why are there people out ! Have they no sense
Beautiful surf in Dorset. Can’t wait to get out there.
Your remains may wash up on the beach in France. I'd stay home if I were you.
@@johnj3577 Hoping the media will capture him on camera . Then sit round TV with family and friend's watching.
When my brother visited Australia a few years ago, he missed a category 5 cyclone. They had 2 of these max cyclones, one in 2006 and one in 2011. They have winds gusting up to 200 mph. plus all the flooding. Not nice.

No Britain wasn't battered by 122 mph winds. It blew 122 mph in one solitary gust in one isolated exposed place. Get real
Pretty sure the '87 storm had 125mph winds. The damage and distruption today is not even close to then, it's practically a light breeze. Although there is a *lot* more media hype about how 'bad' it is this time round. Most people I knew went, or at least attempted to get to work and the only closures were if there was actually damage.
