We have Amy Light here. Or Diet Amy, if you're American. Lots of rain, and quite windy, but nothing extreme. I guess that my area is on the outskirts of the storm.

I'm kinda lucky, though. Tons of rain today and tomorrow, but most of it should by cleared up by Monday. Still, I'll pack my rain suit for my scooter rides to work, just to be sure.

I hope storm Amy doesn't affect you all much, no damage and everything is okay. This is a powerful storm with lots of wind and rain. I took a look at the radar and the storm covered a huge amount of territory from the far north of the UK into Scotland and southern areas too. I'm glad to see some of you got "Amy Light" as @Hitcore mentioned.

XF's link unfurling sucks. (I have written one so I know that it's complicated to make one that works well)


EDIT: Just tested it with that link. It works

@live627 I hope all of your rain doesn't create flooding and everyone is good. Could you please send some rain my way?🌦️ We haven't had rain for about two months now.

Forecasting technology is improving:

I think your new technology is pretty cool:
The Met Office Space Weather Operations Centre will be able to forecast how space weather will impact the thermosphere, which stretches from around 50 to 400 miles above Earth’s surface. It will also be able to predict impact in the ionosphere, through which radio and GPS signals travel.

I'm so worried about the Jamaican people's safety with Hurricane Melissa coming through as a high end Cat 5 storm. This reminds me of Hurricane Katrina that hit Louisiana years ago, however, this will be 100 times worse after looking at a video this morning that showed where the eyewall will hit southern Jamaica. This country is a very poor country, with very little good infrastructure on it's best days. The other countries in the path of this storm are also threatened and neither of them except for the Dominican Republic have good infrastructure to withstand the immense power of this storm.

Thanks @Retro for taking the time to post this good link, as these people will need the world to come together to help them recover.
