Hi All,
I was camping in north wales over the weekend & my barometer read 964 mBar in the evening, which I'd read was a reading you’d usually get with a Cat 1 hurricane.
Naturally, I ignored it & went to bed, but was woken up by really violent winds that ripped the tent out the ground & carried us about 3 meters along.
I’m assuming it was the tail end of Hurricane Ian, but not actually a hurricane itself, so I’m wondering whether it would typically produce a hurricane reading if it’s the ‘hangover’ of a hurricane or should it just have produced a reading relating to gale force winds?
Any enlightenment would be much appreciated
Thanks.
Apologies, I realised that I replied to a previous post.
can’t master this forum or a barometer it would seem.
