Strong 'gale force weather' is reported to be on the way to the UK on Sunday evening/Monday morning, but Bury St Edmunds is not expected to be in the path.

Bury St Edmunds has already been hit by spectacular weather this year, such as this lightning strike in Nowton Park in July.
The Met Office has issued a 'yellow warning' as the country braces itself for the gales which is the after effects of Hurricane Katia, which battered the eastern US earlier this month.
Media reports suggested the whole country would be hit, and even though the Met Office has predicted it will be hard to predict where and when the deep, slow moving depression will hit these shores.
While the West and North of the country are most at risk, it is not expected to lead to serious damage in the east of the country.
The BBC forecast for the next 36 hours is for unsettled weather with no more than a 27mph wind expected on Tuesday.

Certainly a bit blowy around town today, I've been out snapping more pictures of the 'destruction'. It really was hardly gale force but I'll get the pics up in a minute. Anyone had any damage?
