I think it's very unlikely that the waters around the UK could ever reach
26.5 degrees. Additionally, I thought we were always being targeted by ex
tropical storms and ex hurricanes, nothing new there what-so-ever.

So what was so special about Maria that it would have caused such
devastation, when other ex-hurricanes just act like bog-standard lows?

Didn't notice that. Which day was it?

"ever" is a very strong word but I agreed 26.5C is highly unlikely.
That's a good 10 degrees above what they are at the moment. If such a
change occured I think we'd have a lot more to worry about than a real
hurricane hitting the UK.

Additionally, I thought we were always being targeted by ex
tropical storms and ex hurricanes, nothing new there what-so-ever.

Yep, the "expert" doesn't seem to make the distinction between a real
hurricane and ex-ones. I must make a composite of a sat pic of a
hurricane, superimpose the coastline of the UK and put on some broad
wind contours. Add a bit of explanatory text about the wind speeds and
what is normal for the UK as a comparison. That would really put these
massive storms into perspective.

Donno but remind me never to believe anything that that company
produces! Grabs the headlines though and 99% of the population will
believe it. B-(

I think it was about September 12/13 if I remember right.

Thankyou crazy horse for that hurricane article dredged from the Western
Mail,if it had come from the Fortian Times or even the Sun it could be
treated with the contempt it deserved, but I assume the Western Mail is a
responsible journal with some regard for their readers intelligence so even
more reprehensible for printing such garbage .
I know we shouldn't grace this type of childish journalism by even
acknowledging its existence,but I'm still recovering from yesterday's
offering by desperate Dan Corbett,and sometimes need to vent my emotions on
someone other than my long suffering wife.

Ah, that explains it, we were in Northumberland.

Just looked up the archive.

12.09 Max 20.9°C Min 11.1°C Rain 0.2mm Max Gust 14 mph.
13.09 Max 16.3°C Min 13.8°C Rain 23.2mm Max Gust 37 mph
14.09 Max 14.5°C Min 12.3°C Rain 0.4mm Max Gust 39 mph

So, here, the 13th was pretty wet and wild but not really extreme and
the 14th was quite windy, which we noticed in Northumberland.
