Philheybrookbay1 247 Posted February 16, 2022 To be fair Dudley has been a damp squib here, wet and a tad blowy. But Eunice has all the hallmarks of a beast in the making. Sting jet, 100mph gusts right on school rush hour. Even the BBC weather guys normally meek are saying it could be the worst storm in decades (since Burns Day storm in Jan 1990).
