ASSESSMENT FOR PHASE II
------------------------------------
from the 8th to the 13th: if this was a 'fluke', I'd would like some of
this luck!
It will be very interesting indeed to see how Phase III (24th - 28th
November) plays out.

Well if a flat calm and widespread fog was a "success" for the first phase
of storms and gales in their view then I'm entitled to say this was a fluke!

The 1st half of November here has been the calmest & driest I've ever
recorded. Sea conditions here have been exceptionally quiet for the
time of year. Last November saw 9 days with the swell exceeding 20' at
Sevenstones (just off Land's End). This year it's typically been
3'-5'.
Strongest gust here so far this month was actually last night, a mere
32mph. The lowest 'strongest gust' I've ever recorded in any month
(since 1991) was 31mph in June '06.

So recent weeks of been extremely notable, but only for exceptionally
quiet conditions.
