Pressure at 1045 and falling.

Hand on to your hats, this is the real deal.

I don't understand that, what is considered bad than, what number?

Dropping a bit in the Solent, was over 50mph at lunchtime. Will pick up again as the tide drops.

Blustery in Dalston. I saw some mid-sized birds flinging themselves into the gustier moments and playfully spinning in the air. Feathered daredevil teens, i bet. A night of tempestuous leaves and carrier bags beckons.

Not good.

Is this the spending beach people have been told to stay off because it's unsafe.

Reports that the kids were on the harbour wall and it was hit by a large wave - which swept one of them into the sea.

Just hope they manage to find the poor lad

I'm guessing that's bad then!

So am I, the fact my brother who knows about these things is texting me leads me to believe it's not good.

Ask him what the means for us lot that don't know about this sort of thing.

A continual dropping of pressure means the storm is getting stronger, I think.

 

[Ravids]

Whatever it means, the number for the 1987 storm was 953!

And according to our sailor friend it has gone below that!

 

[Fungus]

It's spookily calm in Truro at the moment... the trees are having a rest before all hell breaks loose!

The lower the number, the tighter the millibars, the stronger the wind : or as in a surfers favourite expression 'There's a HUGE Low out there'
