My younger bro was on a campsite near Red Wharf Bay last night and has been talking about how he was literally holding the tent down to stop it from flying away, with more gales forecast for the coast into tomorrow he's decided to return back home for a more quieter night's sleep.

Windy day for England and Wales, southern Scotland as the main rain bands head north and a scattering of showers persists for Britain. Better day for Northern Ireland

All still Storm Ellen

Possible tornado between 1.45 and 2.00 am last night on our farm on outskirts of Ludlow. Incredible wind speed for 5 minutes with rain, thunder and lightning. I had considered it might have been a microburst but the obvious damage trail this morning being 80 meters wide across three fields makes me think it was a short lived tornado. 80ft ash tree snapped into three pieces. Huge boughs snapped off of oaks and circular hay bales sucked out of dutch barn across field. Smaller trees snapped in two. All of this in a 80 meter wide path. Just wish i had a drone to confirm damage path from above.

Getting some good 35mph+ gusts now occasionally making the house move and creek.   Seems to drop off to almost nothing under the patches of drizzle, but then picks up instantly once they've passed over.
