Just had a gust that has set a few car alarms off - you were spot on

Maybe heading your way soon, definitely getting wild here now.

79mph?! Is that accurate?

January 21

Meto has me down for gusts of 60 + starting at 1500. That doesn't seem likely right now

Down the coast from you, here 1 local weather station has recorded a gust of 41mph in the last hour, how accurate, i don't know

I would say some gusts are approaching 40s so maybe accurate

January 21

Noticeably uptick in gusts in last hour or so, still nothing I would call strong yet bur isha still about 200 miles away?

There are a few insane ones, P04 and P22 in particular.

The whole of the north is battered by those

The worrying part for me is 3 constant days of Strong to Severe winds. Lost 2 big tree's already since these storms started. Luckily they have hit the garden and not the house.

I don't think Tuesdays will be as bad or even named. Surely we can't have 2 consecutive named storms?

That is shocking?

Yes. But not surprising. I remember them using the term breezy during storm arwen, one of the worst storms I've ever experienced here

January 20

BBC weather at its best. 'Breezy.' Awful (albeit dangerous) wording

I've been to Exmouth in Devon this afternoon . The sea was very choppy and the wind was difficult to walk in .

I've looked on windy.com and the wind is already at 35knots .

Is this Isha warming up and arriving early and also its on the south coast , I thought the main brunt of it was starting north Cornwall coasts , north Somerset, Wales coast and up through to Scotland later on .

The Irish Sea also looks very stormy at 60knots .

No its not Isha its just a windy day, she's still way off in the Atlantic

At the moment, yes, a new feature that could develop into a small secondary low on future runs.

As it stands it will have the effect of squeezing the isobars further...

Is that not the definition of a sting jet? Usually they occur as the low exits though

January 19

What's worrying me about this storm is the timing, forecasts aren't updates as much during the weekend (bbc local doesn't update at all) now if this system keeps on strengthening we could be looking at widespread disruption on Monday morning and many people maybe caught out!

Is that not just a trough?

Looks like a classic sting jet to me

Looks like GFS is developing a sister Low to the South over Iteland..

That's quite worrying surely? Looks like a sting jet!

I feel this coming storm is looking a bit like Feb 2020's Ciara quite a bit in all of shape, structure, windspeeds and areas affected. Widespread gusts around 60mph inland, but not much more, but covering pretty much the whole country. A notable cold front with potential squall line harbouring the strongest winds as well. Also. Will be quite a long lasting system, despite it being later in the day.

I think there's potential for stronger winds than 60mph especially in the north. I think 70mph looks fair widespread for Scotland and perhaps NE England. Interesting for sure

January 15

It's gonna be nowcast tomorrow as to whether a) any meaning precipitation reaches us

b) whether it's cold enough to be snow

C) whether the uppers are cold enough for it to stick

All very knife-edge I should imagine

Yes would be nice

If only the wind was north easterly, the North Sea is on fire

I know what a waste that is

Looks like a brief window on Thursday when the wind turns more favourable for us

Would be nice to think we could muster 2 snow events

January 14

What's happening here then??

Slightly north again, far south may be back in the game on this run

What's with that precipitation coming into the north east? That's not popped up before has it?

Latest ECM tracks Tuesday's LP right through the North-East.

Fingers crossed. I read on the mad thread it had moved south lol

January 14

For the north the cold spell is just beginning. Maybe be only 3-5 days but there's a chance of snow. Not trying to rub it in but this forum would have you believe there is no cold spell at all which isn't true!

Need a bit of a upgrade for us at low levels looks very marginal

Which one did you watch? The one I've just seen didn't mention it at all!
