A stray fence panel ran round the playground at Cubitt Town School overnight, ending up clobbering a bush.

Minor damage after wind warning, snow on the way?

The top half of this panel was whipped off by overnight wind.

The Met Office has issued two weather warning for London at the start of 2025.

First, there was a warning about strong winds on New Year’s Day. There were reports of minor damage around the borough, particularly in exposed areas. Cubitt Town School seemed to have suffered from a wandering fence panel which had an argument with a shrub (above). One resident reported that the top half of a panel on their balcony had been ripped off (right). The winds were expected to abate as the day went on.

Second, the Met has issued a yellow warning of snow. The warning starts at noon on Saturday, 4th January and lasts until 9am on Monday, 6th January. This is a warning, not a guarantee, but residents are advised to check up to date weather reports if they are travelling around East London or going further afield.
