On 29 January a severe windstorm swept from northern British Isles to Norway. It was named as Gertrude and in Norway as Tor. The storm managed to break the all-time wind speed measurement record setting a new value of 48.9 m/s at Krakenes lighthouse north of Bergen on the coast. |
Here are an English and a Norwegian article. The second one has a long list of the observations (wind speed and gust).
