Is 940mb 'extreme' or is that how it has been quoted by the hysterical media?
Going from all the forecasts, and adding some smart-arse comment I would say SW Ireland is going to get quite a battering, along with Irish Sea and SW England (F10 - F11) Sunday night - Monday morning. So far as mainland England goes in particular, F8 for a time between 0600 - 0900 Monday is most likely the highest number and from the South. After 0900, winds turning West, South West and dropping F5 - F6... The future may prove me wrong of course, but why not throw in some sensible numbers to mull over before the 'extreme' breeze ruffles the wingtips?
I'm flying LHR - NRT on Monday so here's hoping these numbers get to the right 'person' , 'persons' or 'things' who have a say in such matters
