So on the one hand, it's a little silly to see a headline talking about "hurricane force winds hitting Britain" and worry about the people i know in Britain, cause that's a whole country we're talking about. It would be pretty silly for people to worry about me because there was news of a hurricane hitting the US.
But on the other hand, pretty much all of Britain is relatively close to what is pretty much the same ocean, and said headlines mention the same storm also hitting the Netherlands, France, and Germany, so it's not exactly a localized affair.
