This looks like it could be really nasty here, I'm right in the firing

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.


So what happened? I was expecting a blow up here and be woken by the noise
after 0300 but nothing happened... The wind dropped; it got warmer, 4C
from close to 0C; it rained, 6mm in a couple of hours.

It's starting to get a bit blowy again now maybe back up to F6 from the
noise. It's a N'ly so the anemometer is sheltered, hence only reading F4.
