Sommer is over if you have not been preparing for this over the last days well to say your complacent and late would be an understatement it will be very windy and raining around 0300 tonight so keep it simple and as has been stated trees are and could cause a lot of trouble as the ground is wet from the last big rain and wind will be more of a factor !

Just under 70 Miles per Hour I would suggest that Trees coming down could be a problem.
