We've got almost-sunshine, 6 deg C, no wind and dry for a change. I hope it stays like this for a week or two. Forecast says nice for three days, but they're often very wrong.

Hi, it was pretty rough during the night here (west Wales); the wind roaring up the valley sounded like a huge wave coming closer.No structural damage here but I'm not sure about elsewhere in the UK, will be watching the lunchtime news because there's a brief lull in the winds and then they're due to pick up again.

Round II of the storm has just hit here; lashing rain and the force of the wind is making the caravan walls bend slightly! Hairy! Thankfully, it is in a dug-out bank, so it should stay in place.
