Edinburgh is bracing for strong winds and possible snow as Storm Éowyn hits, prompting a rare amber warning for safety concerns
The Met Office had already issued a yellow warning for wind earlier. But now, with Storm Éowyn approaching, they’ve upgraded it to amber. This storm could be dangerous.
The amber warning lasts from 6 AM to 9 PM on Friday. There’s also a yellow wind warning for Saturday. During this time, power cuts and service disruptions are likely.
Storm Éowyn might cause damage to buildings and homes. Flying debris could lead to injuries, so it’s best to stay safe indoors.
Forecasters are also warning about possible snow in West Lothian. They say it could cause some travel disruptions on Friday morning. Roads and railways might be affected, leading to longer journey times.
Stay alert and take care if you’re out and about. It’s a good idea to keep an eye on the weather updates.
