A Yellow weather warning of wind has been issued for almost every part of the UK on Wednesday the 14th and Thursday the 15th January. North Eastern parts of Scotland are the only part of the UK not to be included in the weather warning.
The Met office Yellow warning reads...
Another Atlantic low pressure system is expected to deepen significantly as it tracks towards the UK. The strongest winds will initially be across England and Wales during the second half of Wednesday into early Thursday before moderating. This may also lead to large waves on some coasts of Wales and southern England. A separate area of very strong winds is likely to affect more northern areas of the UK through Thursday, particularly affecting Northern Ireland and the Central Belt of Scotland.
As well as the very strong winds, a band of squally rain is likely to sweep eastwards across many parts through the period.
The exact track of this system is still open to some uncertainty as is the location of the strongest winds, particularly across the north on Thursday and this warning will be updated as and when necessary to fine tune the areas at risk from the impacts.
Other weather warnings for Wednesday and Thursday include, and Amber and Yellow warning of Snow, more details of which can be found here, and Yellow weather warning of rain affecting Wales and the South of England. Extended periods of heavy rain are likely to lead to standing water and the risk of localised flooding.
