Windy, isn't it

[Colvic Watson]

Sitting watching the storm at Tollesbury marina. Very windy, a few Genoas gone and a couple of covers but everything else doing fine. High water in a couple of hours, looks like it's being held back by the SW wind. Overall not bad but the gusts are almost impossible to walk against.

Tide no where near made here in Tollesbury. 80mph is phenomenal

69.93 highest gust at Shotley.

Here in Ipswich it's all over the place, the flats around the marina affect the wind a lot. One second it's almost nothing, then it's 30 knots. Not seen anything above 30 knots though.

Some tiles blown off my roof. I'm bloody annoyed as it was re-tiled in 2017. So it looks like poor workmanship by the contractor.

Might say that the Dylan Video of Levington did not appear to be all that bad for a Bad weather windy day ; the waves were quite moderate , but suppose its the wind strength that cannot be appreciated on a video !
