🌪️ Brace yourselves, UK! Storm Chandra is sweeping in with gusts up to 80mph! The Met Office has issued severe warnings for wind, rain, and snow across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. 🚨
🌧️ Driving this morning? Be cautious of wet roads and sudden gusts. Southern England faces yellow alerts with former amber warnings in places like Plymouth and Exeter now lifted. Meanwhile, northern areas like Huddersfield and Bradford are on rain and snow watch.
⚠️ Scotland is gearing up for potential heavy snowfall, especially around Aberdeen, Edinburgh, and Glasgow. Northern Ireland isn’t spared either, with widespread alerts for rain and wind pushing south from Ballycastle to Kilkeel.
Paul Gundersen, Met Office Chief Forecaster, highlights the storm’s complexity: “Heavy rain will impact already saturated areas in the south, while snow could pile up to 20cm over the Pennines and Highlands.”
🛡️ Be prepared—grab torches, batteries, and a phone charger. Storm debris, large waves, and coastal dangers are also in the forecast, so let’s stay safe! 🌊
