Ok another post from him:

The primary gust was with the initial lightning and hail, winds have died away now but will pick up again later on this evening and overnight, the strongest and more sustained gusts are expected overnight as I mentioned originally.

The main gust just now launched a wheely bin right down the centre of Blackburn road near Edenfield, was crazy!.

The temperature has dropped an incredible amount in a short space of time. At 7:40pm it was 8.5C, it is now 1.3C and still falling, precipitation is turning readily to snow.

Strongest winds are over for now, but things will pick up again overnight and early Wednesday, again as mentioned in the original warning.
