Live weather from near Lands End


and Gwennap Head
 which did hold the record for the strongest low level gust in England & Wales (according to the MetO) 
118mph: The strongest gust recorded at a low-level location in England, at Gwennap Head in Cornwall on December 15, 1979.

115mph: The peak wind speed reached during the “Great Storm” of the night of October 15-16, 1987, at Shoreham-by-Sea in West Sussex. 

though I think it might have recently been beaten by a rather questionable gust of 122mph gust at the Needles. Questionable because nowhere else, including relatively nearby Portland, were remotely near.
