Storm Ashley is set to arrive in the Republic of Ireland, followed by parts of the UK from Sunday, as the Joint Cyclone Centre warned its winds could tonight reach 110mph
The UK is set to be hit with monster 110mph winds later tonight as Storm Ashley prepares to unleash its fury.
Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Tony Wisson, said: “Storm Ashley will bring strong winds for most of the UK on Sunday before it clears on Monday, with a chance of some disruption across parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, Northwest England and West Wales. “More generally 50-60mph are possible in some inland areas in other parts of the warning area, especially Northern Ireland and western Scotland, and perhaps up to 60-70mph along exposed coasts and hills. These strong winds in conjunction with high spring tides, may cause some disruption.”
However, before that, there may be transportation issues tomorrow from Storm Ashley. Head of Transport Resilience at Transport Scotland, Ashleigh Robson, said: “Storm Ashley is set to bring widespread disruption for travel on Sunday and into Monday.
