The main event is definitely Sunday's low. there may be a sting in the
tail too as the low moves into the North Sea late Sunday into Monday.
The pressure rise in the following confluent ridge could be quite
strong and may possibly increase the gradient temporarily to give SE
Britain a bit of a blow! Lower confidence in this aspect though.

I was thinking similar but more what was keeping strong winds still present
in the south-west and not as far as SE England. GFS 12z coming out just now
follows similar evolution up to T+36 (that's all that's been updated as I
type, but slightly shallower centre).

The track seems to be a bit further north on this run, taking the centre
across NI rather than south of Ireland. This reduces the squeeze on the
southern flank a little.
