Storm Eowyn hitting the South

​​​​​​​In the South, where it is anticipated to cause some possible travel disruptions due to high winds. The Met Office has issued a Yellow Weather warning, alerting residents and travelers to the potential dangers of wind gusts that are expected to reach speeds between 40 to 50 mph.

Storm Eowyn is expected to bring its most severe weather impacts to the northern and western parts of the UK. Areas such as northern England, north-western Wales, and western Scotland are likely to experience the strongest winds, with gusts potentially exceeding 80mph. These high winds could lead to significant travel disruptions, damage to buildings, and power outages. Coastal areas are particularly at risk, with warnings about large waves and beach material being thrown onto coastal roads and properties. The Met Office has issued yellow wind warnings for these regions, indicating a significant risk to life from flying debris and the severe weather conditions.

While the southern and eastern parts of the UK might escape the worst of the storm's effects, they will not be completely spared, with disruptions expected across a broad area. The storm's impact is fuelled by a powerful jet stream and is part of a broader pattern of unsettled weather affecting the region.

For those in the affected areas, it's crucial to follow safety advice, secure any loose items outside, and stay updated on the latest weather forecasts and travel advisories.
