GFS is going for mean winds of 35 knots here in the Midlands tomrrow
morning, I've been looking at the GFS for the past 7 years and have never
seen such strong winds forecast in the Midlands, could be interesting to say
the least.

Personally I would be surprised to see a gale severe enough to do much
structural damage here in Reading. A few fences down, some branches maybe,
but not justifying such hype. My money would be on further north and
east - as well as the usual suspects near south/west coasts of course.
Anyone agree.

It all seems still on course, for a pretty wild day

Shipping forecast is pretty wild too, with several mentions of violent
storm 11's being possible

Time for final preperations
