Earlier concerns over red liquid spray at the O2 Arena

Appeared to be coming from one of the main plant areas - which are known to contain two diesel back-up power generators.

Theres as known issue with render systems delaminating

@BBACerts is aware of the issues but have indicated they are bound by NDAs so were not seeing their investigation outputs in public - yet

One for @team_greenhalgh @CommonsLUHC to tackle

DMs open

Even the armed forces haven’t escaped a battering by #StormEunice

Storm #Eunice going to keep #EmergencyServices + LA #DangerousStructures officers very busy today & over next 24-48hrs

How many shrink wrapped buildings undergoing cladding remediation will be impacted?

We can all help by keeping out of harms way & essential travel only

https://twitter.com/Nzsa12/status/1494668834770505733

We will be seeing this across the country today & do we have another #BuildingSafetyCrisis inbound.

Very challenging times for embattled @michaelgove @team_greenhalgh ministers @luhc facing cross examination during Monday’s @CommonsLUHC pm session

Thanks to @fayebrownjourno @MetroUK for invited comments on #StormEunice & extensive damage to the O2 arena today.

Will the worst of the storm pass tonight or are we in for more to come?

Old enough to remember a number of great storms over the year to acting as an incident responder to roofing failures during early career to more recent #disastermanager responses

Earlier @metoffice reports gave advance warning on the potential power of #StormEunice

Seeing a few reports on temp or air supported structures collapsing under #StormEunice

Reminder that storms can also generate wave slap forces as these ferry passengers experienced

Common occurrence across the country at #StormEunice lands

Little bit of guidance on insurance claims from @itvnews

Sad news from Ireland to London are #StormEunice fatality reports started coming in a few hours ago

Power supply interruptions are expected across the country following #StormEunice

Believe me you do not want to travel in high winds unless you absolutely have too

I’ve had to on a number of occasions risk the commute to (ahem secure) facility in Cumbria only to experience below + toss-up between sleeping in Preston station or paying £200+ cab fare.

One just around the corner from me local area

It’s not only the immediate danger of scaffolding collapse during #StormEunice but the more dangerous stabilisation operations for #emergencyservices & #scaffolders

Tragic news of another fatality attributed to #StormEunice

We’re keen to see images or footage from buildings undergoing cladding remediation

We hope @CommonsLUHC raises with with @michaelgove during Monday’s #BuildingSafetyCrisis evidence session

https://twitter.com/eamonncanniffe/status/1494697502238519299

Another building under-remediation

Surely terrifying for impacted residents

https://twitter.com/ICladiators/status/1494678649299214336

Special mention for @nat77splat who’s been giving us all insight into the darkened life behind the shrink wrap

@michaelgove @team_greenhalgh @luhc @GOVUK @CommonsLUHC past time to get everyone safe at home - fix now and recover latter using #PolluterPaysAmendment

https://twitter.com/nat77splat/status/1494985780275646470

Little update detail on this case

Pls do keep posting the storm damage to buildings & particularly those undergoing cladding or external wall remediation.

Even badly built low rise didn’t escape storm damage!
