Sounds like it could get ugly.

Some TOCs are planning on running an amended timetable (East Coast,
c2c), others have one up their sleeves, ready to go (or not go, as the
case may be).

This afternoon might be a good time to go out and enjoy the splendid
autumn colours - in southern Britain at least - might not have any
autumnal leaves left on the trees come tomorrow, indeed might have
fewer trees as well.

I agree. I remember the 1987 storm, and the smaller one in Jan 1990
which was actually more of an inconvenience (both for my personal
transport needs and for domestic electricity supply).

Like 1990, this one is apparently going to be in the daytime, which
makes it more disruptive than the 1987 one which was at night.

I've changed my plans and will be doing some errands this evening that
were pencilled in for Monday morning, and stay at home tomorrow.
