North west regional discussion

[Weather-history]

Wind suddenly got up.

[shadowfax]

Wind is howling here and lots of things rattling around outside, but I'm not going to investigate probably the swing hammock taken off again!!

[Mokidugway]

Windy out though no danger of it bending 12 inch RSJ's 

[pip22]

Why can't they issued weather warning for this wind?!! So howly outside!!

 

 

[Darren Bown]

The wind is horrendous. Could say it’s the worst it’s been this season (including autumn).

You never know with how the models are interpreting this SSW at the minute! Prey that wobbly cow you posted earlier doesn't slip on the ice tomorrow morning  I can hear girders bending and cattle groaning already

Very windy here in Manchester City centre, was not expecting this.

Very gusty winds out there...trees really swaying....really loud rumble as the wind blows through trees higher up.... must be gusting 60-70mph.... downburst? hammered it down half an hour ago too....

[Weather-history]

The wind seems very noisy tonight.

An earlier FAX chart suggested a tight pressure gradient associated with the wrap around from the low. 

[weatherobsuk]

Just finished flying on FSX and one pretty strong gust smacked right into the window, i've seen that MAN has forecast thundersnow on the latest METAR so was thinking it was that until seeing the Radar.

Hope it calms down tomorrow, it's blowing a hooley outside. 

[HafrenLMP1]

Yeah the usual rubbish, however my eye is still on from next weekend til mid March for real snow chances as all this Northwesterly stuff is just crap.
