October 26th to 31st or Nov 1st. Storm gusts of 80 to 100mph in
places. This is likely to be a major storm period but probably only a
'warm-up' for what is to come in November. It is good there is now no
election (eg on Nov 1st ) because the election period would have been
severely disrupted (NB warning of the storms was passed on to the
Labour leadership). The storm will track East and likely (80%
confident) affect Holland, Denmark, South Norway, South Sweden and
parts of North Germany.

Ah, so now we know the truth behing the election that never was,
nothing to do with poor opinion polls then!

80-100 mph, eh?

Just watch Corbyn clain 'victory' with a gust of 80 mph in an
exposed location during a 'normal' autumn gale, on any one of
those dates in that week.

The chances of that I would imagine wouldn't be particularly low,
especially if you considerthe Northern Isles and mountain tops
in the Highlands.
