The BBC Weather website and app are suffering a data issue, meteorologists have said, after forecasts showed hurricane force winds hitting the UK.
Graphics show estimated wind speeds of 13,508 mph in London and overnight temperatures of 404C in Nottingham.
Presenter Matt Taylor said in a post on X: “Don’t be alarmed folks - Hurricane Milton hasn’t made it to us here in the UK! There’s been a data glitch between our suppliers and the app/online. Folk are working to solve the issue”…
“Jovian hurricane force” would be more accurate.
Much faster.

This is like Mach 18.
Apparently the fastest known winds in the solar system are 1,100mph and on Neptune.
