[WR] violent storm, central lowlands with mega gusts
Strongest winds i have ever seen, currently battering Lanarkshire.
Think these must be the strongest winds in the central lowlands since the Glasgow hurricane in 1968. Top 10 minute mean wind speed at my site is 63mph, and highest gust so far is an astounding 104mph. At least 3 other gusts over 90mph, and regularly over 80mph. There will undoubtedly be no end of damage. Surprised we still have a roof! Many slates ripped off roofs in my street, and a report from a friend in Motherwell of a street of houses with at least 2 gable ends down. Ongoing. alex Stephens Wishaw Central lowlands |
