Just tried to open my front door to go to work ..
It took all my strength to stop it being ripped from it's hinges ..
Closed it and came back inside ..
I may not bother with work today..
cest la vie..
In the meantime ...the VHF dipole is flat to the roof now ..the upright pole having been bent over by the wind ..
and this has little surface area ..
I dread to see what damge has been done outside ..
but I can't open a door to find out..
Hi --
Only 50 miles north of you .. and although we had torrential rain during the night and early this morning ... the winds have been only moderate to strong ... certainly not gale force .... as yet.
