Even before it hit today’s storm was being billed as the storm of the winter. By 6 am there were homes without electricity in the South West, trees down and sea defences being breached. I have never seen the barometer so low. I’m sure it is nothing special in national or historical terms but 28.2 inches of mercury (and still falling) looks pretty low to me. It translates as 955Mb.
