You live in a lovely part of Kent Meatn2veg. I once lived in a three storey wooden house with 5 other tenants in Maidstone in the latter half of 1987 and most of 1988. I experienced a freak weather event on the night of October 15, 1987 when a hurricane passed through Kent. The forceful winds passed through the house in waves of intensity and literally blared, repeatedly, with the sound of a trumpet as they did. The next day we saw many fallen trees outside. One of these was a huge tree which luckily fell against the house instead of falling through it.
I also saw the following weather report which caused much embarrassment for meteorologist Michael Fish:


I remember the Great Storm very well. People still talk about it even now........as they do about Michael Fish's infamous lunchtime forecast that day!
