That’s amazing you are getting gale force winds just now and yet here it is so calm , the trees are not moving .
Re: Thursday's winds could reach gale force seven
I can confirm thunder etc in Polemi last night, and there is a definite wind howling. The bunny's cover was blown off in the night, but she's ok.

Well in this corner of a Polemi, there was some fairly heavy rain and hail for about 30 mins around 9:30 last night and no more rain since, the dog has come back from her morning walk with more or less dry paws. A strong breeze but judging by the movement of the shade sail on the car port, nothing by comparison to the storm we had a few Monday’s ago, 6th of January I think it was.
Re: Thursday's winds could reach gale force seven
I agree, it's a fizzle-out here with wind speeds/direction, temperature and precipitation not as forecast. I suspect that the warm front, yesterday morning, had something to do with it. My 10:00 yesterday forecast was not good but the only satisfaction is that the official one, several hours later, evoked the same as mine: we were both wrong! I attach today's but...
Currently (10:00), 8.4°C, 57% RH, Gust 5.8 m/s NNE Av, 3.4 m/s ENE moderate breeze, small, light clouds, mostly clear/blue.

Peak gust here 9.3 m/s at 13:34, classed as Strong Breeze, down to 2.7 m/s in last hour. Calming down now, so 'crisis' is over. temp down to 4.9°C, so looks like a cold night coming.
Re: Thursday's winds could reach gale force seven
It has been cold here in Polemi overnight (Saturday am) We have ice on a small children's paddling pool
