    Default Nonrevers Beware: Hurricane Force Winds Delay Flights in LGW,STN,LHR AMS

    Breaking News: A major storm with hurricane-force gusts is lashing southern Britain, parts of France and Netherlands, causing flooding and travel delays, including the cancellation of roughly 130 flights at LHR.Express train services between central London and LGW and STN airports were suspended because of the storm, and the major English port of Dover was closed, leading to a cutoff in ferry service to France.

    Thousands of homes in northwestern France lost electricity, while in the Netherlands several rail lines were closed, airport delays were reported, and citizens were warned against riding their bicycles — a favored form of transport — because of high winds. Amsterdam's Central railway station was shut by storm damage.

    THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY...

    UK Power Networks officials said up to 220,000 homes were without power.
    Flood alerts have been issued in many parts of southern England and officials said hundreds of trees had been knocked down by wind gusts.
    Gusts of 99 miles per hour (160 kph) were reported on the Isle of Wight in southern England. Gusts in the 75 to 80 miles per hour range were reported on the mainland.
    The storm has hurricane-force gusts but is not classified as a hurricane. It was not formed over warm expanses of open ocean like the hurricanes that often develop in the Caribbean and threaten the east coast of the United States.
