Interested to see the models pointing to this low shipping down from
the NW - a most unusual direction for a storm that rapidly deepens
(both GFS and ECMWF in impressive agreement of 996mb to 956mb in 24
hours).

Looks like possibly some widespread strong winds with gales in places
- nothing too dramatic I'd wager but what interests me is seeing
possibly force 8 in the sea areas as far north as Norway and as far
south as Portugal !

Cheers
