    I hate to say this... but I'm getting the same vibes as 1987 with this one. Having lived through that night and run up, the set up is broadly the same, Sting jet, rapid cyclogenisis, same SW- NE alinement. 

    Given the number of trees in Devon still in full leaf, I'm pretty fearful. The SE gales will also impact transport with A379 going to be in trouble at Torcross and railway line at Dawlish. 

    Said exactly that yesterday

    Anyone reckon we'll see Thursday's storm named today? I'm expecting a broad sweep yellow warning to drop down later this morning. It looks like we are going to see a direct hit from a powerful Atlantic storm, with the models showing central pressure ranging from about 948 to 955mb, approximately. 

    Yep. Currently modelling shades of 1987 😬

    Strange looking at the lightning strike history around that area yesterday, that theres no recorded lightning strikes showing on lightningmaps.org....or does that site miss stuff occasionally??

    I thought that too as I live about 15 miles away, and we saw nothing.  There are plenty of eye witness accounts though

    I'm sure there are some in the affected areas who wished this was a "non-event".  Warnings are just that. They warn of possible risks. Not every warning becomes an actuality. 

    Exactly. I'm sure those who've had their rooves ripped off in the RoI will be overjoyed this was a "non event"
