It depends on the area, which you didn't even quote.
Yes it's a downgrade at that current time for most areas but looking at the south west, there's unfortunately been a upgrade for wind gusts.
What has been a fact for almost certainly is that closer the timeframe the wind gusts/speeds are downgraded/watered down.
If that's isn't the case this time around that I fully admit that I was in the wrong.
I apologize that you find my posts annoying but I'm simply giving my opinion on the current weather.
Have a good day sir.
