Dh making us drive in red warning

[BlueFoxel]

It just so happens dh and I have been on the Welsh coast for the past few days enjoying a mini break before our wedding. Was sent the emergency alarm earlier today. We are due to set off tomorrow morning in the middle of the red warning for wind. I have shared my concerns with dh but he really does not care at all. Dh thinks I am dramatic at the best of times and has totally dismissed my fears. He has a football game he is wanting to drive back home for. He is very arrogant

I am really bloody stressed out.

Please tell me I am being crazy and everything will be fine.

Why didn't you leave early when the red warning was issued this morning?

Given that, you are right and shouldn't drive.

His match might have been cancelled already.

I don't understand why you didn't leave today if the trip finished tomorrow anyway?

I absolutely wouldn't be wanting to driving in a red warning.

Why are you marrying him ?

If he insists, let him go, and you stay.

Why are you marrying someone who is dismissive of your legitimate fears and is arrogant?

He’s arrogant, dismissive of you and doesn’t care if you’re scared. Why are you marrying him?

I would avoid travelling personally but my car is not v reliable and I always worry I'll break down if I have to drive through a flood or something. Depending on where you are travelling from and to I expect the Severn bridges will be closed, they are v dangerous in high winds.

He is very arrogant

Are you expecting him to change?

A red weather warning isn't issued lightly. There is a risk to life. You should avoid travel.

There are nearly six hours until the red warning comes into effect. If it's that important to him then he should leave now.

Id take water, blankets and food in case you get stuck in a 20 hour tail back because lorries have turned over.

Have you shown him the alert ?

It says not to drive

let him drive home, you stay where you are and think about where this relationship is going.

Isnt op married to this person?

No she's on a break before their wedding which if she has any common sense she will make a permanent break...

A guy I used to work with, his wife and 3 kids were all killed a few years ago whilst driving in an amber warning storm. A tree fell on their car. It's unlikely to happen but it can happen.

A red warning is risk to life. You shouldn't drive. Either leave now or stay put. All sports fixtures in Wales have been cancelled so people aren't travelling, but I'm guessing you're going back to England.
I only remember one other red warning, and it was really scary, trees down all over the place. I wouldn't go out in one again unless literally life or death.

Why didn’t you leave earlier?

I’d tell him you’re not coming, and he can come and pick you up on the Sunday if he’s determined to go.

Honesrly! For a bloody football game. How stupid.

I suggest either going now or waiting until the red warning is over tomorrow, although there are also an orange warnings for wind and rain depending on where you are. My experience of orange rain events is that there's a lot of flooding and road closures. They don't recommend travel in an orange warning, I definitely wouldn't in a red.

I'd be booking a hotel and waiting til it's over. He can do what he wants.

I would leave now or wait until Sunday.

In wales on a red warning. No id of left already or extended my stay. We saw plenty of damage in the amber last year.

Don't risk your life for a football match. To be blunt, he sounds selfish and stupid, I'd be reassessing the wedding. He should want you to be safe.

Can you stay longer or is your accommodation booked by someone else?
