There are differences between the model predictions. For example, the Arpege model moves the storm away more quickly than the GFS. The most important point is that the strongest winds are likely to be in Northern Ireland, northern England, southern Scotland. However, it will be very windy for a time across all of the UK, and parts of Wales and south western England are also likely to have severe gales.
