New weather warnings issued as further storms approach UK

Summarised from 2 outlets · 3 reports · Updated 27 Oct, 07:32 · Archive

The Met Office has issued two yellow weather warnings for strong winds and heavy rain across multiple UK regions. The first warning runs from 6pm on Monday until 3am on Tuesday, covering north-west England, Northern Ireland, south-west England, Strathclyde, south-west Scotland and Wales. The second warning covers the far north of England, Scotland and the far north-east of Northern Ireland from 3am Tuesday to midnight.

The warnings come after Storm Boelo battered the UK over the weekend, bringing gusts of 84mph and dumping a third of a month's rainfall on parts of Scotland. The fresh weather system will bring gusts of 45–50mph inland and 60–65mph along exposed coasts and high ground. Heavy rain will accompany the winds at times, with the Daily Record reporting that gusts exceeding 70mph are possible in the far north of Scotland, particularly the Hebrides, where the most severe conditions may persist for several hours.

The conditions could hamper recovery efforts in some areas affected by Storm Boelo. Monday will remain wet and windy as rain spreads north-eastwards, bringing potential for coastal flooding in northern areas. On Tuesday, early rain will clear eastern and south-eastern England, while heavier rain in north-west Scotland will gradually ease into showers.
