Some big wind gusts today!

As #StormÉowyn moved into the Republic of Ireland earlier, a wind gust of 114mph was recorded at Mace Head in Galway - a new all time wind record for the country.
After this record wind gust the station stopped reporting due to damage to the recording equipment.

COLDEST IN 3 YEARS TONIGHT across Southwest Florida with near-record lows in the 30s Saturday morning. Last time it was this cold was January 31st, 2022. Wind chills will be as low as the upper 20s at sunrise. Air temps just above freezing, but in areas with lighter wind, patchy frost is possible. Bundle up and keep your pets warm too! 🥶 @WINKNews

Well, this is unusual! Photos taken Thursday show snow on a Florida beach and no snow in the Alaska wilderness.
Historically, Juneau averages 25 inches of snow in January, but it has only had 8.1 inches so far. Pensacola received 8.9 inches on Tuesday.

#StormEowyn could be the worst storm in generations for Ireland, Scotland, and the United Kingdom. The GFS model below shows pressure getting down to 936mb, equivalent to a category 4 hurricane! Met Office saying flying debris could cause danger to life, with gusts up to 100mph.

Remember the historic snowstorm on the Gulf Coast? Turns out it’s not done yet.
It will develop into a bomb cyclone known as Storm Eowyn, which will be the equivalent of a Cat. 4 Hurricane. 100+ MPH winds possible in Ireland.
Could be the worst storm in UK and Ireland in years.

Another very cold morning Friday, then another nice rebound. Not buying we hit freezing... maybe a few spots get there. Most stay in the 20s and with the breeze, it will feel more like teens. #mawx

#Florida had a bigger single day snowfall than nearly every major Canadian city - even the north. This could be the most wild map I've made in my career #Enzo #Winterstorm #Toronto
