Very strong southwesterly winds, associated with Storm Bram, will continue into the early hours of Wednesday, with gusts fairly widely of 60-70 mph, and 80-90 mph in parts of west and northwest Scotland. Winds will ease somewhat inland into Wednesday morning, although it will remain very windy across the Hebrides and western coast. However, another spell of strong westerly winds will develop for a few hours through the afternoon, with gusts widely 50-60 mph inland, and 70-80 mph along exposed coasts and high ground of the Outer Hebrides, northwest mainland and Orkney. This may exacerbate any clean-up operations. Winds will gradually ease in all areas through Wednesday evening. What Should I Do? Prepare to protect your property and people from injury. Check for loose items outside your home and plan how you could secure them. Items include; bins, garden furniture, trampolines, tents, sheds, and fences. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items. If you are on the coast, stay safe during stormy weather by being aware of large waves. Even from the shore large breaking waves can sweep you off your feet and out to sea. Take care if walking near cliffs; know your route and keep dogs on a lead. In an emergency, call 999 and ask for the Coastguard. Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly. When a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.
