More BBC Lies About the Latest UK Storm- Gale Floris
The Met Office are now so desperate to promote climate alarm that they are prepared to lie about it. The above screenshot was from the BBC news feed yesterday.
In reality, winds never got above 82mph, well below the record of 87mph set on The Needles on August 6, 1996.
When Alex Burkill was speaking, the highest gust was 79mph. There never was the slightest possibility of 90mph winds. Floris was officially Storm Force 9, a Strong Gale, with sustained winds at Wick of 53 mph.
Of course, The Needles weather station had not been opened in August 1979, when the catastrophic Fastnet storm killed 21 yachtsmen and rescuers. The Fastnet Inquiry found that the storm had likely reached Storm Force 11, a violent storm and second only to a hurricane in strength, with sustained winds of 70 to 75 mph. This has since been confirmed by reanalysis
Interestingly the Inquiry noted that August storms in 1957 and 1970 had been even stronger.
How any responsible Met Office meteorologist can waffle on about supposed records, when people tragically died in a far more powerful storm years ago shows just how far into the gutter the Met Office has descended.
Please take time and watch this short film, and spare a thought for those who died and those who put their lives at risk to save them:
