Gale force gusts at the very least.
An equinoctial gale, albeit it a few days late.


Temporal and geographic spread for this complex low,
so Big Katie or Katie1,Katie2, Katie3 etc?


I don't know what you mean by temporal but the front goes to Cape Rojo in Mexico at the time of writing:

"+map cape rojo mexico"

"As one of the few protruding features on this part of the coast, it may be regarded as the boundary between the western coasts of the Bay of Campeche and the Gulf of Mexico proper, and is frequently used by the authorities as a breakpoint for tropical cyclone warnings and watches."
