The incoming storm for Friday now has its peak impact in Northern Ireland and with us in Central Scotland, as the Met Office escalates the amber warning to red.
Red warning is now in place for Friday between 10am and 5pm with Storm Eowyn significant guests expected to 100mph (161km/h) with high probability of falling trees, damage to fences, roofs and property.
Met Office is warning it will be worse than the strong winds of 2 weeks ago and advising people not to travel.
Northern Ireland is expected to be hit particularly bad, with all schools already advised to close there. BBC Weather says tomorrow could be the storm of the century for the Republic of Ireland.
Please take care and stay safe. Red weather events for Central Scotland are very rare. This weather event is going to be ‘lively’.
