Default Winds disrupt ferries and drivers (Kent & Sussex)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/6203840.stm

Seems like there was more disruption than I thought. It was quite windy
here but not excessively so - our newly erected garden fence was taking
quite a battering!

I am trying to work out why the A20 would be closed though.

Sounds like the brow of the hill in between Folkestone and Dover. Very
exposed... blew a truck over according to the report..
