Steve: How did you sleep through 90 mph gusts?

Not very well at all!

Were you able to determine at all what your average winds were? I think you mentioned that the 88 mph number was faulty and you deleted it.

The problem is that there isn't enough data from the logger to calculate a proper average, as there is only a value logged every 5 minutes. I suspect that the true average would have been around 65 mph.

How about your wind run? Surely there has to be a record there?

Only for this year - 850.4 miles. My all-time high is 1155.9 miles.

Finally, you mentioned debris flying by your window. What kind of debris?

Bits of seaweed, wood, plastic, general rubbish - an empty lager can hit the window at one point. Being close to the sea means that all kinds of rubbish gets washed ashore, and then blown about.
