  1. Winds were more west south west when the stronger gusts were about, not sure about most of the south coast but langdon bay is sheltered from that direction. Our strongest winds always come from the south/se, any westerly element and winds measured at the station are low, whether its gusty here or not. One of the reasons I want to set up a station here, for personal use obviously.
  2. Not sure about that, wind we're definitely stronger in some parts it's just no official stations near known wind tunnels etc.
  3. Yeah cause normal for the pylons to ark with low winds, the where very gusty here, but no station to pick it up. Probably lea winds or something.
  4. Im watching the electric pylon cables arking right opposite me, on the down my kids walk to school over, not sure how long I'm gonna have electric for.happened about three times in the last five minutes. And I don't think this is anywhere near over for us.
  5. I didn't think there was any wind inside the angling club lol.
  6. Must have had responsible neighbours here, they had a trampoline for years, and the nets were always taken down if the wind picked up, had the other neighbours over hot tub gazebo in my back garden though, along with weights that were holding it down and some fencing. That bit of wind made a right racket, trampoline survive in place.
  7. I was probably out in the 74, when I posted about it starting here.
  8. It's starting here, standing at a bus stop to go home, really pushing me about.
  9. Actually assuming the person is at work in the day, and asleep at night, you could argue it may have worse consequences at night.
  10. I've never seen him thank goodness. Don't use tiktok mind, but I'm pretty surey kids would point this out if they saw it.
  11. Exactly this, the named storm has impacts somewhere, if it named by us, it'll be somewhere on the British isles, be that jursey, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, North England, SE England, sw England, northeast England, or literally all over, like today's. Just cause it's week where you are, doesn't mean it shouldn't have been named. If it's name by another country, it might not have any severe impacts for us at all, but it's still named, and still deserves it's name, for whatever it's named for.
  12. Shelter from the sw by Chiltern perhaps plus very long land track
  13. I can do the opposite and point to numerous strong easterlies that should have been at least yellow and caused damage down here, with no warnings.
  14. Wow, and to be honest expected. I can not believe there's people in here saying we are hyping this up. It's going to be a major storm, OK probably not as strong as the extreme stuff some are after, but very stronge winds for hours country wide is serious even so. There will be areas with extreme gusts too.
  15. To the area effected which is more sign posted by warnings. Also if a storm is named by other countries we often use the name, even though it's not effecting us.
  16. Actually it has been notably windy today, compared to the rest of the week lol, normal business has resumed. I guess we'll see what Sunday night Monday morning brings We'll it was clearly not dead in that case, just looked it. I'm glad it got rescued, and helped.
  17. I agree with you ferries won't be running till winds die down.
  18. Need to not just pay attention to the names but also where the actual warnings are. A named storm for Scotland is gonna be crap in London, a named storm the forecast to miss London to the south with the main winds, will be crap in London.
  19. We'll not this time as it'll be the second 80+ storm this winter for us, should it do this
