Rain here at the moment is horrendous really coming down out there and some strong gusts of wind!
It got up to around 25mph here in filton but has suddenly dropped off, rainfall is increasing.

Don't know if you know about this but it might come in handy for you
Very handy, the stationas about a mile from me so the data is almost real time.
-
Rainfall has stayed consistently at 0.33 for the last 40 minutes, gusts are strengthen and becoming more sustained.
-
Gusts now between 15-25mph

Gusts now between 15-25mph.

Last half hour has gone from 0 mph to 16mph. Dropped to 981 now.

Dropped from 987 to 985 within half hour, Rain also picking up and temperatures rising.Gusts are currently at that 0-2mph range but starting to enter the 0-3mph range.
Dropped to 983 by the time I had walked the dog, We have rain, not heavy but is very constant, lots of surface water starting to appear as the ground is already saturated. I have like a stream next to my property which is for water to run off. All the time I have lived here it has been completely dry, Just been out and for the first time its a full flowing stream which I recon with a bit more rain will burst its banks and encroach on the dual carriageway next to it. Wind gusts up to 7mph.

I'm gonna get wellies on and take the dog for a walk and see if I can get a feel for things.

yeah my thoughts exactly. But to be honest over the last few days it has been really windy, now it calmer than it has been. i bet the sea over your way will look great tomorrow.. I am in Landkey so even more sheltered here as down in the valley.
nice to see someone else from north devon on here
will stay up for a few hours so we wait and see.

I have a caravan situated in Landkey. Lovely place. Hope my caravan is ok.

987 here. Rain is picking up, a few tiny tiny gusts but thats all.

where are you Decee?
I'm in Bristol.

Local weather station is saying winds of 2mph. Gotta feeling this is gonna creep up on us here.

989.3 in Filton, Bristol. Still very very calm though.

Just had a heavy shower next to Filton Airfield. Trees by me swaying side to side.

It'a already pretty windy here.
Even if it looks like it wont be as severe as it looked like at this time yesterday, in UK terms, it will still be a storm when it arrives overnight.
I live just up the road from you, I live in the new housing development next to the airfield. The wind has certainly picked up over the last 12 hours and is getting stronger and stronger. The openness of the airfield and the housing development makes wind round here always worse. I have loads of tall trees around my property so I am slightly worried.
lol - yesterday i was concerned, today i'm a bit more relaxed. While it will be extremely gusty, current projections have really taken a dip on speeds, most of the folks will be asleep during it and will probably not even hear anything. I'm still heading out of course,and safety in mind.
Personally I think its wise that people should stay awake during a storm so that they can react to any possible situations. Being asleep in a potentially volatile storm would be foolish in my opinion.

So are we off or on or on or off? i'm reading it's possibly weakening but I go outside and something just doesn't feel right, It feels like there is a monster on the way.

I was out shopping up Cribbs around 5pm, very heavy rain followed by hail, hail came in two bursts each lasting about 45 seconds. Then came some very very impressive lightening. I wwas in asda car park and two prongs of lightening appeared just behind toys r us, very nice crackling sound of thunder followed immediately. Must say don't think I have ever been as close to lightening as I was earlier. I felt the whole car shake.
