Yes I remember that day, we still only had four tv channels, and they had basically all been told to shut up and cause panic.
Michael Fish used to drink in our local pub, he didn't show up for a few weeks after this.

I remember this occurrence. A rare hurricane that hit the UK and took down some hundreds of grand old trees. He wasn't the only meteorologist to fail the prediction.

Just goes to show that you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. Though, of course, Dylan was referring to the notorious Weatherman Underground group.
