Default [WR] Wanlockhead, Tues 11 Jan 2005

Just another breezy overcast day so far. I've definitely had enough of
this wind now, I know others have had and will have it far worse, but I
just want it to stop now, please. Heavy snow, falling vertically, please.

After a mid-morning lull, the wind is now increasing again, currently
27mph (F6) SSE. Pressure 999mb (-3mb/hr), temp 5.8C. It's now raining,
but not yet measurable - my AWS gauge is back to 1mm resolution after
the wind ripped the funnel off the other day.

We decided last night that it was too late to book a holiday where it
was warm, dry etc. and we just had to sit it out :-(

one We've just had a 20-second power outage - the UPS is a real boon
at times like this!

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-)
