Boelo undergoing rapid intensification Boelo has begun to rapidly intensify. The system is displaying an already impressive comma like appearance as it's rapidly beginning to mature. The system will deepen rapidly through tomorrow and by late tomorrow evening the system will have peaked in intensity. However dangerous conditions are expected widely across Scotland, Rep of Ireland, Northern Ireland and Northern England. Especially across Western and Northern Scotland. Heavy rainfall, large waves will both lead to coastal and inland flooding. Damaging gusts are also possible with the leading rain band. However the low's core winds on the southwest side will be where the most dangerous conditions will be. For Western, Northwest, Northern and Northeast Scotland. Damaging gusts will quickly translate across the country. West coast Rep of Ireland and Northern Ireland will also likely see damaging gusts. With further inland areas along with inland Southern portions of Scotland and Northern England. Gusts may peak in the range of 50-70 mph. With the strongest gusts over West and North-western Scotland ranging from 80-100 mph. Higher ground will see gusts likely exceeding 90-105 mph. However for the areas of greatest concern of wind in official warning areas from Met Éireann and Met Office. This is storm will pose a danger to life and property, and this system will make travel extremely dangerous and so that it MUST BE AVOIDED. As the conditions later on Saturday as the core of Boelo move would quickly become life threatening. But it must be stressed before the system arrives. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION! Peak gusts for this advisory raised to 65 mph. As an ASCAT pass revealed winds distant from the core of the low. But along the developing cold front. Peak surface winds of 40-45 kts, with 65 mph being the middle of the peak gust estimates. It is to be noted that the southwest side of the system is yet to catch up. However the rapid intensification will happen and by the time the next advisory is issued during the late morning to early afternoon. The system will very likely be producing gusts well over hurricane forced. INT ... 55 KTS ... 65 MPH
