Well you all have the picture by now of a very disturbed week ahead with
a 200 knot jet slamming into the UK. Something for everyone during the
week, rain, snow and stormy winds being the order of the day.
I'm worried particularly about next Friday because the potential is
there for a storm of greater ferocity than the one that battered
Scotland last week, track depends crucially on jet orientation, looks
like a classic Norwegian low and not Shapiro Keyser, so wind field will
be larger. 00Z GFS run (not to be taken literally) is awesome and shows
destructive potential with some very warm air from low latitude
entrained initially which all occludes out and condenses as rain/snow.
Take care and keep an eye on the MetO warnings. This storm will be
focussing minds in Exeter for sure!

My fence got damaged in strong winds on Thursday evening so I am
concerned about this as I need to get it shored up. Otherwise there is a
risk of it blowing down on the neighbours car which would probably be an
insurance job (if it is covered) or very expensive for me.
