[Sunday's Low]

Turned eerily quiet here but further south into the Pyrenees some very strong winds with apparently 147kmh an hour gust near the main link between France and Spain at the Col De Somport, temperature readings very bizarre, here 24c! 20km away 12c in Pau! Biarritz 22c, must be a very localized foehn effect. I think the Cold front is about to come through and I think some very strong winds imminent!

Wow 24C!

The snow threat from next weekend onwards should not be underestimated.
