There has been huge progress in tornado and severe thunderstorm related research thanks to @essl-ecss.bsky.social and some others in the last two decades, but this doesn't always translate into broader risk awareness and education, including in the public/media sectors.

We have a similar situation over here in Germany, unfortunately, even though we have seen a few "high-profile" cases in recent years, e.g. Paderborn 2022, Bützow 2015, etc.
I would say that there has been some improvement in terms of awareness, but the warning & comms systems are still inconsistent

Strong for this part of the continent at least. Storm AMY a few weeks back was the "first" significant windstorm of the season in general.

And both systems near the upper/lower end of what is "climatologically possible" at the time of year in terms of wind speeds and MSLP.

Another interesting (if somewhat older) paper I found on historical gales: rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Tiree features a few times there as well, among some other noteworthy events.

Same here! There seems to have been a long-lasting power cut after 18Z yesterday, so the "true" max gust speed may have been even higher.
Also, didn't Tiree have gusts significantly above 100mph during the January 1968 storm?

Nein, das Tief heißt noch immer Amy, es wurde vorgestern vom UK Met Office so benannt.
“Detlef” ist lediglich der deutsche Name, vergeben von der FU Berlin.

Presumably because in this case the system doesn't really contain the remnants of HUMBERTO, it was a separate development further downstream (i.e. a "warm front-breakaway" type of evolution).

CAVOK

Looks more like a "warm front-breakaway" type of development, but also fuelled by high-WBPT tropical air in the vicinity of "HUMBERTO"
