It's all starting to happen! At Buoy 62095 (52.8°N 15.6°W) the

backed to SSW Force 6.


At least GFS, in the last day or so of cogitations on no-name storm,
has knocked back its UK air-space "storm motion" from over 90mph to a
bit less . Shifting the 90mph priviledge to Holland, well the 06Z
run anyway.

At 1400z the pressure at Buoy 62095 was 999.3 mb. That was a fall of
11.0 mb in 3 hours and 4.6 mb in 1 hour. Either the system is moving
very fast or deepening rapidly or, more likely, a bit of both.

But the yellow wind warning has been dropped for my area.
Even though there is a forecast of 36 knots gusting to 48 knots.
Funny I thought.

Yes, I noticed, mind you the current forecast winds are are lot less (at least for here) than we had yesterday, when there was no hint of a warning.

The current 5 day forecast for Penzance for Saturday is a 50% chance of rain virtually all day. The text reads "Winds will ease on Saturday with plenty of sunshine" At least you get a choice!

You must let me know next time you're down this way.
