Default [WR] Haytor 03/12/06 (phew!)

0930

What a night.
Front came through at 0415 with a temperature drop of 3 degrees and a massive
gust of 68 knots (81 mph) calculated at 10m agl, recorded 3 metre gust was 41
knots (49 mph). I did say I expected the strongest wind to be on the front. This
is my highest recorded gust so far. I am relieved to say that there has been no
damage to the house as far as I can tell. That was higher than expected as I am
fairly sheltered from the south. Rainfall 30 mm BTW.

Will.
