I see Aberdaron just down the Llyn is topping the list at 60mph. It's getting pretty gusty here too at 719' inland. I expect to see Capel Curig making an entry into the top 10 soon.

Typical media call the storm a 'hurricane'

The winds here are very strong now, stronger than I anticipated tbh, with sheets of 'heavy drizzle' (as I call it).

The wind keeps increasing then easing for a time before increasing again. Mostly light rain for a few hours now.

We must be in the Eye in SE Essex, not a breath of wind! Waiting to see the stars.

Might see Weed Strimmer in the garden if I am lucky

Very windy here now. Not sure about actual numbers, but it must be around about the 40mph mark. I think it might also be raining too, so not quite Irma, but it is something.

Suddenly getting rather blowy in south London now,  replacing old fence panels in the garden that have historically come loose in high winds was on my list to do this month, didn't expect gales to arrive so early in autumn, so been caught out. Can here the fences creaking ready to blow out already, hammer out in the morning I think ...

gust of 69mph at the Needles tops so far, though a very exposed site in the English Channel.

Wind picking up here...find it very soothing to listen with my window open. Fortunate with the timing the band of strong winds will have transverse and cleared by dawn into the North Sea.

This has got to be the worst hurricane the uk has experienced since the last one which was probably sometime early this year, we get so many they don't stick in the mind!

Some pretty strong winds down here on the south coast, and has been for the last couple of hours at least.

Pretty breezy down here. I'm inland and out of the warning areas and have just recorded a 39mph. St catherines point IOW have 51 mph gusts and very strong gusts in the Severn estuary as well as south coast. A lively night for anyone on the SW flank of the low
