Why are the BBC and the newspapers obsessed with using the word braced all the time? Every report about the adverse weather is headlined with Britain braced against heavy rain etc.
It conjures images of people having to hang on to heavy objects to stop themselves being swept away.
Another overused word is battled also in connection with the weather... "Take that you fiendish wind and rain! En garde!!"
Can't they come up with something better?
Rant over.
