| - The Royal Charter Storm (also known as the Great storm of 1859) of 25 and 26 October 1859 was considered to be the most severe storm to hit the Irish Sea in the 19th century, with a total death toll estimated at over 800. It takes its name from the Royal Charter ship, which was driven by the storm onto the east coast of Anglesey, Wales, with the loss of over 450 lives. The storm followed several days of unsettled weather. The first indications were seen in the English Channel about 3 p.m. on 25 October 1859, when there was a sudden increase in wind speed and a shift in its direction. There was extensive structural damage along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall. The storm drifted northwards, hitting Anglesey by about 8 p.m. and not reaching maximum force at the River Mersey until midday on 26 October, then continued northwards to affect Scotland. The winds reached force 12 on the Beaufort scale and were well over 100 mph (160 km/h). At the Mersey a wind pressure of 28 lbs per square foot (1340 Pa) was measured, more than ever previously recorded. (en)

Namnet kommer från fartyget Royal Charter, som drabbades vid Angleseys östkust utanför Wales, och där över 450 personer omkom. Stormen kom efter flera dagar utan avdunstat vatten. De första indikationerna sågs ute på Engelska kanalen runt klockan 03.00 på eftermiddagen den 25 oktober 1859, då vindhastigheten plötsligt ökade, och vindarna bytte riktning. Svåra skador drabbade kusterna vid Devon och Cornwall. Stormen blåste sedan norrut, mot Anglesey runt klockan 20.00 på kvällen, och nådde maxstyrka vid vid middagstid den 26 oktober, och fortsatte sedan norrut mot Skottland. Vindstyrkan nådde 12 på Beaufortskalan, och blåste i över 100 engelska mil (160 kilometer) i timmen. Vid Mersey uppmättes den högsta vindstyrkan någonsin. (sv)
