Bradford is bracing for strong winds as Storm Éowyn approaches, prompting a yellow weather warning from the Met Office this Friday.
Bradford: The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning as Storm Éowyn heads our way. This storm is expected to bring some seriously strong winds, and it could get a bit wild out there.
The warning kicks in at midnight on Friday, January 24, and lasts until just before midnight. So, if you’re in Bradford, keep an eye on the weather.
Forecasters are saying we might see gusts reaching up to 70 mph inland and even higher along the coast. That’s no joke! It could lead to some damage, like tiles flying off roofs and power cuts.
Travel could be a hassle too. Roads, trains, and even ferries might face delays or cancellations. So, if you’ve got plans, it’s a good idea to check ahead.
And let’s not forget about safety. Flying debris could pose a risk, so it’s best to secure any loose items outside your home. Think about your bins, garden furniture, and anything else that could get tossed around.
The Met Office is advising everyone to be prepared. If you’re heading out, make sure you’ve got warm clothes, food, and water in your car, just in case. Better safe than sorry!
Stay safe, and keep an eye on the latest updates from the Met Office. They’ll have all the info you need to navigate this stormy weather.
