It's not unusual to have big Atlantic storms batter Scotland at this time of year.
But this is a weather bomb, a rapidly intensifying depression - with the pressure plunging in the eye of the storm by at least 24 millibars in 24 hours.
And it's leading to exceptionally high seas, with wave heights in excess of 50 feet or 16 metres.
That's more than twice the height of an average house.
The biggest waves will be in the deeper water.
But the islands and western and northern coasts of Scotland will bear the brunt through Wednesday.
The atrocious weather is being fuelled by a strong transatlantic jet stream.
The high altitude winds are racing along at 230mph.
They spawned this storm and have steered it headlong into the Scottish coast.
