In the northwestern part of Jutland, the wind reached storm power, while the winds have reached hurricane strength.

The storm Knud has shrugged in the wood crowns and torn in the backwaters of northwestern Jutland a large part of Friday afternoon and evening. In this area, meanwhile, measured mean winds of regular storms and winds of hurricane strength.

The wind reached the first time at 15:30 in Hanstholm, when the wind speed exceeded 24.4 meters per second, which is the limit of storm.

The rest of the evening continues to blow very strongly along Jammer Bay in northwestern Jutland, but the wind will gradually decline in the coming hours.
