London is bracing for strong winds and heavy rain as Storm Éowyn hits, with travel disruptions expected throughout the day
London: The Met Office has issued yellow wind warnings for much of the UK, including London, from 5am to 3pm on Friday. Storm Éowyn is rolling in, bringing strong winds from the south and southwest.
Gusts could hit 50 miles per hour, especially in higher and coastal areas. So, if you’re out and about, hold onto your hats!
In London, expect a blustery morning with heavy rain, particularly around 6am. Winds might peak at 53 miles an hour before easing up a bit later.
Temperatures will be around 10 degrees, and the afternoon should clear up nicely. Here’s how the day looks: heavy rain at 6am, light showers by 9am, sunny intervals at noon, and partly cloudy later on.
But be careful! The windy weather could mess with travel plans on roads, trains, and ferries. It’s a good idea to check your travel options before heading out.
There’s also a chance of power outages, and high-sided vehicles might face delays on exposed routes. Stay safe out there!
