The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for strong winds across all of Scotland, expected to last 18 hours. The warning, in place from 3am on Tuesday until 9pm, covers the entire country and is part of ongoing weather disruption following recent storms.
The warning includes gusts of up to 70mph, with potential for travel disruption and power cuts. Schools across Scotland have been closed as a precaution. The alert extends to parts of Northern Ireland, including County Antrim and County Londonderry.
This follows a series of storms that hit the UK over the weekend, including Storm Austen and Storm Boelo. These storms caused widespread disruption, with reports of power cuts and flooding. The latest warning is part of the ongoing recovery period.
The Met Office has advised residents to prepare for strong winds and potential travel delays. No immediate danger to life or property has been reported, but the situation remains under close monitoring. The weather system is expected to ease by the end of Tuesday.
