Just got the alert on my phone, nearly had a heart attack lol
Everyone on my train looked at each other in pure terror. It was like 28 days later.
Amy McDonald was ready for this:
.
Oh, the wind whistles down
The bright lit street tonight
and the bins, they are flying
past my neighbour’s drive
.
.
and the plants race the trees with the tiles in the air
while the ripped off roof lies way over there
and each bin flies further than the one before
.
.
and you’re running down the road, where the debris is rife
and you’re racing down the street, knowing you’re risking your life
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna land this time?
and you’re running down the road, where the debris is rife
and you’re racing down the street, knowing you’re risking your life
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna land this time?
Where you gonna land you sodding thing?
.
.
So you’re heading down the road in the downpour
and your bin’s landed outside someone’s front door
but it’s upside down and the shit’s flown everywhere
So you’re standing there, the air turning blue
Trying to find everything before the neighbours do
Why did you land, why did you land right there?
.
.
and you’re running down the road, where the debris is rife
and you race down the street, knowing you’re risking your life
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna land this time?

Not me thinking we were about be nuked…
At least they finally used it!
Also who does that at the kids bedtime that’s pure evil
Was parking between two other cars when the alert went off. Shit myself I’d hit something.
I do have to wonder if maybe that sound could be reserved for really bad emergencies
Like nuke v some wind
Hello, good evening, and REMAIN INDOORS.
Is it a bird? A plane? Nope It’s next doors trampoline smashing into the living room window!
Just tied the trampoline to a cherry tree. Hopefully the tree stays put
Perk of living in a valley, it just blows right past me, also I never got an alert, but nice that it’s working.
I feel left out. What alert? What did it say?
Edit: Just realised I had power-saving mode on. Then a minute later it came through and shit me up so I cancelled it before I saw what it said.
A shit-show all round, think I’ll go to bed.
Even though I’d not long seen a warning telling me to expect the sirens, I still thought we were about to start the Purge.
Have they launched the early warning wheelie bin beacon yet?
A previous big storm there was footage of a wheelie bin flying up into the sky, another storm there was footage in the Netherlands of a wheelie bin falling out of the sky. I like to think we launched an early warning wheelie bin to alert our Dutch friends.
Congrats in advance to all those who will have new garden furniture, trampolines, and bins tomorrow.
Commiserations to those who have missing sheds, fences and outdoor Christmas decorations.
Bring your washing in!

Same warning sound will pop up when there’s a nuke incoming 🥲
Yo, can we have one a little less Nuke’y please.
Just ballooned ma chimney breast.
I’m curled up in bed with a hot water bottle and all of a sudden my phone is screeching at me. Still, better now than at 3am.
Storm Darr-aaaagggghhhhh!
Warning: we are at level “Oh my god – trampoline!”
I finally received it. Didn’t know my phone could make such a horrible sound. I changed my phone since we had the test and I don’t remember it sounding so weird then but idk
I was walking down Aberystwyth promenade with an umbrella earlier on and almost got airborne like the Penguin, secure your umbrellas folks.
It was actually going to be called Storm Darren but it arrived the moment they were naming it.
TRAMBAPOLINE!!
TRAMAPOLINE!!
Can’t help but feel like I’m going to get egg on my face at about 90mph.
Alert went off just as the nice lady was handing me my eggnog latte in the drive through . I now have coffee on the inside of my car….. Yay
Step up to red alert.
Are you absolutely sure, it does mean changing the bulb.

[Looks like a bit of a breeze incoming](https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/orthographic=-6.02,53.85,10755/loc=-3.058,50.737)
Shared Norfolk stay safe Hun xox
Operation Dismantle The Trampoline already took place at about 5pm this evening.
Tie your wheelie bins down and secure those recycling boxes, people! Code red, code red!
BRACE. BRACE. BRACE. And FFS tie your trampolines down, sport.
Crap- Rolf Harris was one of the wrong ‘uns, wasn’t he?
Everyone ready for tonight’s great trampoline migration?
Also, the government warning alert thing going off whilst I was driving was great, nearly shit myself thinking WW3 was starting.
