No, not yet but soon. Though getting blustery already.

Local forecast is going for 85mph gusts on the coast and even 75mph
inland. High tide at Blackpool is around 2.00am apparently.

This looks like it could be really nasty here, I'm right in the firing
line with this one.

Dunno whether it will be as bad as Jan 18th 2007 when I estimated
windspeeds of around 80mph.


It's getting very blustery here, up to about 30/35 mph. It's more windy
than yesterday. Worried about tomorrow, as it looks like it will affect
us more than yesterday.
