I think the worst of the winds for us up here in the far NW will be later
today, as the wrap around occlusion to the south of the low's centre moves
over us.

It can be clearly seen on the 06Z ASXX

Ouch!

I've been keeping an eye on the IR satellite at
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/satpics/latest_uk_ir.html and it shows up
quite nicely. However, my impression is that it could traverse south of
here. Currently, we're in the clear patch and things have calmed down
again but I'm posting [WR]s at two hourly intervals after 14:00 so it'll
be interesting to see how it develops.

I did put a number of caveats in my original post ;-)
