Strom Freya will be generating violent weather; MetO wind warnings are out for Wales and the NW, but everywhere will get plenty of rain. Current forecast track is from the SW approaches to Tyneside, with the strongest winds on the south side.

A classic bomb for the UK - cold air getting down into a warm Biscay and picked up by the jetstream, echoes of Oct 1987, though nothing could be as dramatic as that. 

And the synoptic setup doesn't change, with another less violent storm on Thursday but the GEFS rainfall spikes are huge.

Well the MetO infra red shows the area that is to spin up now to our SW.

More warm moist being dragged in again?

Do keep up to date with warnings folks esp, if you have to be out and about!

Calm and damp down here at the moment.

Weather warning still in place, though Freya seems to be arriving a little later than predicted a few days ago i.e. this afternoon/evening rather than all day. Wind speeds also lower on this morning's forecast with 50mph gusts rather thant 60 - not that 50 is negligible.

This is from the warning “Storm Freya will bring very strong winds, with some travel disruption and possible dangerous conditions late Sunday and into Monday”

The met office new scoll-a-lot layout shows a wind warning over us during a period when the winds fall lighter than they were last nght.

A few hours rain will be welcome really after days of drying wind.

It has been rather windy in many northern parts overnight but that is due to the Low to the north rather than “Freya”

Storm Freya will largely miss us bringing rain and hill snow overnight on a NE then NW wind

The warning has been consistent but a few days back before the warning was issued the thinking was a more vigorous, more southerly and 12 hours earlier. Even so, the latest prediction of wind strength only just merits a warning, last night's forecast had higher wind speeds

Ah right, yes having reread your original post I realise what you meant. 

For what it’s worth I do think it may be notably windy in some places later.

There is a decent view on the satellite imagery currently https://en.sat24.com/en/eu 

The Bournemouth Echo seem to have been caught up in the excitement of the moment by saying Weather warning issued as Storm Freya makes landfall.

That's a new one for me the making landfall bit.

Rain is quickly turning to snow over many parts of Ireland at the mo. 

The wind is increasing, but still only Fresh at the moment.

What surprises me is how quickly the pressure is falling. It`s fallen from 995mb to 985mb since 12.10pm according to my barograph.

Wrong track for this area, sadly. AGAIN.

No snow here but just had some big freaky hail.
