Autumn Storms/Severe Weather Discussion

[Tom]

This is the most recent update of the storm from me and team of forecasters, it has began to slow down slightly..


A slight downgrade is showing on the computer models compared to yesterday, and whilst there will still be some extremely strong winds, it now looks as though 100mph is unlikely to be reached.

The wind (and rain) will start to increase after 9pm with gusts reaching 50 or 60mph by midnight.
By the early hours of Monday morning we will see a rapid increase in wind strength with gusts approaching 70mph.

Between 2am and 5am a cold front will come through bringing some much heavier rainfall and as this heavier rainfall arrives the winds will start to gust up to 80mph, possibly higher in a few spots (we still aren't ruling out a few 90mph gusts)
After the rain band clears, the wind will veer from SSW to WSW and for a short while it will become less strong.

By 7am some showers will be developing and running in off the English Channel and as these showers hit the winds may temporarily increase again with 70mph gusts possible.

The rest of the day will be windy with gusts around 40mph but in any showers the winds are still likely to gust to 60mph or 70mph temporarily

i only made a pic for the isle of wight because its a isle of wight weather page lol but theses winds still stand for open and rural areas in the south of england
