Youre on an amber aren't you?
yes amber...80km mean...130km gusts...yellow for up to 2 inches of rain. So not great.

I agree Coldfingers, i feel western facing slopes and coasts are gonna get a bashing, spoke to a few people today and were thinking the same, based on the trajectory this storm is heading, west/east winds swinging from south east to north west, and the duration 24hrs...its not going to be pleasant in heavy showers.

Winds 35km/h south, pressure 980.2mb. Clear and starry. Wind is picking up here and rain showers merging later. Not pleasant.

Rain has stopped since 17:00hrs, skies cleared but now wind is picking up blowing moderate to fresh east south east. Pressure 984.7mb falling.

Incredible, it's amazing how different a Atlantic storm looks on sat compared to a hurricane, okay the structure is similar to a degree but the sheer size difference.. Although size doesn't always equal more power..
And equally a rain event too, its been lashing down here since midday. Warning out here for 2 inches of rain. A bit of flooding i suspect.
