Region: Orkney & Shetland

Strong westerly winds will persist through the first part of Saturday as Storm Éowyn moves away to the northeast, with gusts of 40-50 mph inland and 50-60 mph on some exposed coasts and hills. There is a chance of 60-70 mph gusts across Orkney for a time. Winds will ease during the early afternoon. What Should I Do? 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

Storm Éowyn will continue to bring strong winds into Saturday, with some disruption possible

Storm Éowyn will move across the northwest of the UK on Friday, clearing to the northeast on Friday night and through Saturday morning. This will bring a spell of very strong west to southwesterly winds, with peak gusts of 60-70 mph fairly widely inland, 70-80 mph in some areas, and 80-90 mph along more exposed coasts and hills (perhaps even higher in a few locations). Winds will gradually ease from the south during Friday night and Saturday morning. 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.

Winds will increase across the area Saturday evening in association with bands of showers. Gusts of 45-55 mph are likely, especially for coasts and hills. Showers and strong winds will ease and clear Sunday morning. Whilst these sorts of wind gusts are not unusual for the area, after Storm Éowyn, impacts may be more likely than normal.

Showers, mostly of rain and sleet at lowest levels and near western coasts, but of snow above around 150m, are expected to affect the area during Saturday evening and overnight, before dying away during Sunday morning. Temporary slushy deposits are expected below 150m, with locally 2-5cm above this level with the chance of 5-10cm above 400m in the Scottish Highlands. Additionally icy patches will form on untreated surfaces. What Should I Do? Snowy, wintry weather can cause delays and make driving conditions dangerous. Keep yourself and others safe by planning your route, giving yourself extra time for your journey. Check for road closures or delays to public transport and amend plans if necessary. If driving, make sure you have some essentials in your car in the event of any delays (e.g., warm clothing, food, water, a blanket, a torch, ice scraper/de icer, a warning triangle, high visibility vest and an in-car phone charger). 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. If you need to make a journey on foot, try to use pavements along main roads which are likely to be less slippery. Similarly, if cycling, try and stick to main roads which are more likely to have been treated. 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.

Snow showers will continue to affect Scotland overnight into Saturday morning. Snow accumulations will mainly be confined to high ground, above roughly 200 metres, where 5-10 cm could develop in places. Ice will be a more significant hazard with icy stretches forming on untreated surfaces as temperatures fall below freezing. What Should I Do?

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. If you need to make a journey on foot, try to use pavements along main roads which are likely to be less slippery. Similarly, if cycling, try and stick to main roads which are more likely to have been treated.
