Another Storm for Tuesday

[The PIT]

Interesting little feature which has been around for a day or two. Could bring very strong winds to channel these moving N during the day with a brief spell of 50 to 55 mph gusts going through Yorkshire later.

Looking at ukv showing some hefty rain or showers later on

Our own metwatch...

Possibility for the odd strike UK wide today, ESSL has parts of the NW slightly favourable this evening.  Estofex is favouring the southern half.  We'll see.

This storm as been named by meteo France and called storm pierrick. 

[Rammie]

 Robert1981 what happened to Lilian? 

I thought the different countries still used the same list 

[Robert1981]

 Rammie not sure about that I just see it what named by another source I am following I think other countries use different names and are ahead from our list. 

[matty40s]

We use the same names as Met Eirrean, Spanish/Portuguese/French use a different list of names.

[Rammie]

 matty40s thanks. So, presuming they start with A, they've named more than us and Ireland have named? If we name one, do the french use that name, or come up with their own?

[The PIT]

So Met office beaten again. Well at least it got a name.

[A Face like Thunder]

Not sure whether it's this storm and / or the after-effects of Katherine, but a combination of high tides, wind and rain have resulted in some pretty devastating floods in and around Shoreham, Littlehampton and Cowes (IOW), as shown on the news tonight.

[Freeze]

Yes pretty bad flooding here overnight as tides were a record high 7m. I didn't actually see any flooding myself although I live by the river as the tide receded before dawn, but lots of homes and businesses have been ruined.
