The lull here was overnight, started to hear it again (ie F5) after
about 0600. It the rose to a good F8 by 1300 and fell back a bit,
backing since midnight WSW to 1400 SSW. Rain started about 1400 now
lashing down against the windows. 993mb falling at about the same
rate, temp rising 8C at 1400.

Constant wind (F7) for more than 12hours does get rather wearing from
the noise. At least you sometimes get a dramatic clearance and it
drops to nothing (F4) in minutes. The effect is like banging your head
against a brick, nice when it stops. B-)
