    That would be really something wouldn't it!

    While its something I'd definately wish for, the experts don't seem to think it will intensify. Mind you, there's alomst 12 hours yet to the predicted peak.

    Any chance the storm could do something unpredictable like move closer to Ireland and intensify?

    There are still changes happening with intensity/speed/track on the models.

    I think it it were to track closer to Ireland it would probably be weaker as stronger storms want to turn more left/north.

    Ive seen many satellite photos of the storm approaching Ireland but to be honest I don't know which part is the remains of Katia. Could someone point out to us exactly where the storm is?

    Just back from walk. Wind has dropped since this afternoon. However, to the west and the Atlantic the sky looks ominous.
