The company I work for as it stands are still going to send its delivery drivers into the areas where there is a red weather warning, haven't spoken to any staff who would need to travel to work from that area and it just feels like they are brushing it under the carpet a little.
For anyone that doesn't know what a Red weather warning is .
The red warning area indicates a significant danger to life as extremely strong winds provide the potential for damage to structures and flying debris. Although the most exposed coastal areas in the south and west could see gusts in excess of 90mph, winds will remain notably strong further inland, with gusts of between 70-80mph for most within the amber warning area.”

Many schools are already closing and we've had sensible customers phone in to cancel orders due to the warning but as always there are many customers in the area placing orders and not a single manager here has really acknowledged the severity of the storm other than talked about her own house..
I'm sure many people out there will be wondering what to do tomorrow.
Any advice appreciated.
