Dan Holley (Staplehurst on Netweather, FYI) is reporting on Twitter that the squall line over northern England, which is heading this way, is producing the highest wind gusts.  Expected to be into the northern half of the region mid-afternoon.

What about the first one West of Reading? That came out of nowhere...

Between 2-3pm in the south of the region the strongest gusts according to the beeb website (not sure how accurate that will be)...gusts forecast now to be up to 72mph which is stronger than forecast yesterday.

Seeing a few reports of trees down in country roads and then there’s been a lorry blown over on the main road out of Dover. The road does have a fair bit of height on it as it comes up over near the cliffs but it’s not something that happens often.

Squall lines are setting-up to the south of the main one, but are weaker.

Also, this is the seafront this morning. Photos taken and shared on social media by the talented Dan Desborough (used to work with him a few years back) I’ve shared the link to the post as he’s also added a video in the comments.

Wind not too bad here in East Dene, not far from Eastbourne Beachy Head. Not much rain yet. Hopefully we will see some sunshine tomorrow after the cool front passes by. Good Health to you all.

Once Ciara is out of the way, we may well be in for a repeat performance, in a Week's time.

Dennis could well be the "menace", next Weekend.

A squall is getting organised and approaching our region, with lightning too!

I'm not a betting person, but as is the norm the rain heading my way 'broke up' then re-formed. The curse of my area has returned.

Now we're entering the peak period for strong winds.

Gusts currently 50-60 mph in most places, a few areas still in the 40s. Forecast was for 70+ mph - let's see!

Extremely strong winds here, trees and branches down.  Looks like someone has been injured by a fallen tree with fire brigade and ambulance in attendance!  Fingers crossed they're OK.

Just got to work at Heathrow from home near Croydon just before insane squall line is coming through, no trees down on the way but tree down near office  blocking half the A4 running parallel to north runway, wouldn't like to be landing in a plane today!

That squall was a non-event here in N London. Moderate rain with no increase in wind speeds. Fingers crossed for the next one!
