As you're no doubt aware of by now, the UK is currently grappling with the strongest winds we've experienced in more than 30 years, with Storm Eunice causing havoc up and down the country.
Rare red weather warnings are in full force today, with the Met Office cautioning that powerful gusts exceeding 90mph are to be expected in some coastal areas.
With this in mind, people have been urged to take precautions and to reconsider any journeys that aren't absolutely necessary.
However, while many of us are staying safe and cosy indoors, battering down the hatches like sailors of old, one determined man has opted to head out onto his seaside balcony to enjoy a 'relaxing' cup of tea.
It's doubtful that many would fancy joining him.

As the wind howled around him, 37-year-old Shane Fela, filmed footage from his high-rise apartment building, which is situated right on the coastline.
Waves could be seen crashing all around the building, the waters roiling like something from a disaster movie.
Many of us in Shane's situation would simply hunker down under the duvet and keep well away from the windows. However, with steely determination, Shane declared: "Storm Eunice ain't stopping me from having my cup o tea on the balcony".
Proving his point, the dedicated tea lover proceeded to step out onto the balcony, the fierce wind whipping his long, curly hair around wildly. All the while, he managed to keep a firm grip on his mug, in what surely has to go down as one of the most extreme tea breaks in history.
Those who've seen the hair-raising video couldn't believe what they were watching, with the gusts looking strong enough to rip plucky Shane from the balcony and into the sea at any moment.
One commenter, named Scott Jones, applauded the stunt as a “Good effort", while a woman named Wendy Acty expressed concern about the balcony furniture, remarking “I’d move that table and chair".
In response, Shane, wrote: “After being out there, I did".
Red weather warnings are very rare and are issued when the Met Office determines that the weather poses a danger to human life.
As per the Met Office: "Dangerous weather is expected and, if you haven’t already done so, you should take action now to keep yourself and others safe from the impact of the severe weather. It is very likely that there will be a risk to life, with substantial disruption to travel, energy supplies, and possibly widespread damage to property and infrastructure.
"You should avoid travelling, where possible, and follow the advice of the emergency services and local authorities".
