Storm Lilian is on her way to make sure you all have a great Summer Bank Holiday weekend.
This flurry of bad weather will move northwest early tomorrow morning, forecasters say, with winds above 75mph expected. These winds will batter northern England and Wales and parts of southern Scotland.
Travel disruption, power cuts, dangerous conditions near coasts and flooding are all expected, the Met Office said. A yellow weather warning has also been issued for parts of northern England and Wales and southern Scotland tomorrow.
‘Within the warning area, another 50mm of rain is possible over high ground,’ Met Office Chief Meteorologist Jason Kelly said. The strong winds may rip the tiles off of roofs and flying debris poses a ‘danger to life’. Large waves whipped up by the wind also pose such a risk.
Lilian will disrupt travel on all fronts. Road, rail, air and ferry service may all be impacted, leading to delays and cancellations on public transport. Avoid coastlines too – even the shore – as waves could ‘sweep you off your feet and out to sea’.
