🌧️🌬️ Heads up, Wales! The Met Office has officially named Storm Amy as the first storm of the 2024/25 season, and it’s coming in hot (or should we say, cold and wet)! This weekend promises some wild weather as the remnants of Hurricane Humberto blast through.
A yellow weather warning is in place, with strong winds expected across Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd, and Anglesey. 🌪️ The gusts are predicted to hit around 7pm on Friday and should stick around until midnight Sunday. Get ready for potential gales reaching 50-60 mph, with a chance of even stronger gusts along the coast and in the hills! 💨
Storm Amy’s got more in store with heavy rains expected, particularly drenching western Scotland with 30-50mm in just a few hours. This could mean localised flooding, so keep those wellies handy! 🌊
Expect disruptions throughout Friday and Saturday, with possible damage to buildings, travel hold-ups, power cuts, and even the chance of “injuries and danger to life” from flying debris and big waves. 🌧️
Keep an eye on the forecast and stay safe, everyone! It might be the perfect excuse for a weekend indoors, listening to the howl of Storm Amy from the comfort of your sofa. Stay tuned for updates and remember to batten down the hatches! 🏠💨
Stay safe, Wales! 🌧️🌬️ #StormAmy #WeatherWarning #StaySafeWales
