is there any truth to this or is it scaremongering again.

Thanks for the info Nick.

I see winds in the early hours gusted to 84 mph in Lerwick, 86mph at Fair Isles and a breezy 129mph at the top Bealach Na Ba in the west Scottish Highlands.
ECM, UKMO GM and fax not making much now of Friday's low across the south, GFS still a low with a tight circulation (down to 984mb).
Where can you see the wind speeds as the Bealach is just up the road from Lochcarron where I live.

Thanks Cheggers, I've already topped up my oil lamps and charged as many batteries as I can! All torches have new batteries in them, good supply of candles, plenty coal, wood and kindling. Can't really do much more except go to bed early and listen to the wind screaming around the house! Will be having an early tea and bath, then maybe sit with a dram, purely to keep me warm off course!
we too have candles at the ready. Stuff tied down outside. It looks like a night sleeping downstairs as will be too noisy upstairs. Just surprised by the lack of warnings out.

Why no weather warnings out except for met office?
-
Batten down the hatches me thinks just in case.
Looks like with all the rain as well we could be heading for another landslide. -
HAPPY NEW YEAR

pressure on its way down currently at 975.8.

Its just started snowing here. We don't need anything wet or windy hampening the clearing of the landslip at Stromeferry. We need the road open asap.
-
Been snowing here in Lochcarron since this am. How can it snow at minus 0.7? It is settling as well. Could be an interesting drive down the hill tonight (NOT)
-
snowing in Lochcarron now, down to 1c looks like its gonna be another bad day for motorists tomorrow. It was like an ice risk this morning here cars going off the road everywhere.
-
Its 11.2 here, having to have the back door open as its way too hot indoors. Would be nice to just have a bit of cold but dry. Not looking forward to the winds midweek.
-
OMG Its actually snowing here in Lochcarron.
-
Wonder why the meto don't have any warnings out.
Because they dont care about Scotland, if it were England it would be all over the news as well.
-
the daily express have done a bit of scare mongering!!! www.express.co.uk
Nothing new there then lol.
-
Been drizzly all day here in Lochcarron when it was supposed to be dry. Hairy Celt what do you mean by HC as it is looking quite stormy here on Monday into Tuesday.
-
Happy New Year all of you
-
I am not worried about whether it will or will not snow after seeing whats heading our way over on the Atlantic storms postings, our wind will be gusting 82mph midday on Tuesday.
:sorry: -
Fed up with all the rain and wind now. Please can I have a wee bit of snow.
-
It is absolutely chucking it down with the white stuff and it is settling :smilz38:
-
LOL.
For those with limited access to lamp post forecast data, e.g. in rural areas where such services are limited, a garden halogen can provide a robust alternative for predictions.
:rofl: :rofl: -
We just have snow on the mountain tops atm.
Looks like with all the rain as well we could be heading for another landslide.
:sorry:

The Jan 2005 storm caused loss of life and serious problems here. You can never get used to it. Hope everyone stays safe for this one.
