No, they were "typhoons". Seriously!

This was just confirmed by the (un-named) Sky News female weather
presenter at 22:28. She was still going with the Met Office website
warning of 40% chance of gusts inland to 90 mph. Credit to her for
mentioning the probability and very nice she looked, too. But somehow,
after her faux-pas at the start, I couldn't shift that awful word
"bimbo" from my mind...
