Default No online information during storms

Look moron, if the severity of the storm had been known of in advance
(I don't think God works for any TOC...) they would have made
provision...

Actually the severity of the storm was fairly accurately predicted as early
as last Sunday, when the BBC1 "Countryfile" long-range forecast for the week
was predicting severe gale force winds for late Wednesday night into the
Thursday morning rush hour (actually the arrival was a few hours delayed)
with structural damage and severe disruption to transport on Thursday
morning.
