The Met Office is predicting "strong winds" and potential travel disruption tomorrow with the arrival of Storm Barra.

The UK's weather service has issued a yellow weather warning for wind tomorrow (Tuesday December 7), expected from 9am until midnight, with potential travel disruption in places.

Gusts of 45-50mph are expected, and the weather warning has been issued for most of the UK.

The UK's national weather service says a deep area of low pressure moving in across the UK from the Atlantic is likely to bring high winds, arriving into the west through the morning, and then spreading inland and reaching eastern areas in the afternoon and early evening.

The Met Office predicts likely "delays to road, rail, air and ferry transport", with probably some bus and train services affected, and some journeys taking longer.

Delays are likely for high-sided vehicles on exposed routes and bridges, with some short term loss of power and other services possible.

The Met Office has released information on keeping safe during a storm, with advice including securing loose objects such as ladders, garden furniture or anything that could be blown into windows and break them.

Frank Saunders, Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office, said: “Strong winds arriving across the west through Tuesday morning, will spread inland and reach eastern areas through the afternoon and early evening.

"Gusts of 45-50 mph are expected widely, with 60-70 mph in exposed coastal locations. The strongest winds will ease across inland areas into the overnight period.”
