The text of the local weather forecast warns of a big gale/storm this
weekend -
Atlantic depression low 995. The tabulated forecast gives Beaufort 5.

Er, some mistake, shirley? Beaufort 5 isn't more than a strong wind,
even in sheltered parts of the UK.

Eggsactly.

Sorry - double take there. I read big gale/storm and didn't register the
Beaufort 5. That's just about enough to get a yacht moving! What's going
on, Martin?
