Tonights low shown to have one of these features developing.
I'm sure the experts can explain why bent back occlusions are particularly
nasty?
I remember one featured greatly in giving this area 100mph+ gusts on Boxing
night 1998.
The GFS model predicts an overland storm force 10 uncomfortably close to
this location in the early morning.
The track is rather crucial mind you, and I guess it could still go a bit
north or a little bit south.
Gusts of 90mph can't be out of the question either I'd imagine?
Alex.
