I have had the ‘channel affected by a problem with your satellite signal’ for a week or so now.

I have spent Christmas without sky due to what I think was a storm the week before nudging or breaking my satellite. I have waited because the advice on the app is to wait for bad weather to pass but still no luck despite calmer winds. 

what do I do now?

Call Sky to get an engineer to check the dish.  (Or pay a local firm)

In the meantime also check that the connections from the Sky dish going into the back of your Sky Q box are still finger tight. Otherwise it’s almost certainly a dish alignment issue.
