Definitely not fun up there today. You could see the edge of the front clearly and the 150kt upper wind at FL240 along the back edge of it made getting back to the Island from LGW very boring....Good job we did, because not long after the wind got up to 68kts gusting, and they closed the airport as a LET410 tried to go flying and got it's wingtip stuck in the grass. No Fire cover as they were using the trucks to shield it from going right over. Sweet.
Fortunately we went tech so weren't going anywhere anyway....
