An incredible high wind gust was recorded on the Isle of May weather station as storm Éowyn hit #Fife in late January. An insane 98MPH top windspeed was recorded! 😱😱😱

The live dashboard for this station is available on my website's main page: www.fifeweather.co.uk

Love it when we get the alternative camera angle DVD extra from the Aberdour webcam.

Where I live we now have got through the 10 weeks of the year with less than 9 hours of daylight and are approaching what I like to call the "rapidly lengthening daylight" period of the year. This #dataviz shows the weekly loss and gain of daylight at 51 degrees north.

Wrote up some notes on the Online Safety Act guidance and how it applies to small websites, because Ofcom's guidance is terrible:
