Three Day Weather Forecast issued by the Meteorological Office at 0700 GMT on Friday 14 March 1997

winds should be moderating somewhat. However, strong westerly winds are likely to persist throughout the forecast period
with the possibility of a further depression approaching from the west by Monday.
