Heavy rain and 80mph winds to batter the UK as autumn blows in
The Guardian
|September 13, 2025
Winds of up to 80mph are set to hit parts of the UK this weekend, along with heavy rain and thunderstorms.
The Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for wind running from tomorrow evening until around 6pm on Monday for most of England and Wales. The alert stretches from southern England along the west coast of the UK and up to the Manchester area, with gusts of up to 80mph in exposed areas.
Inland areas will also experience stormy weather, with most of England and Wales battered by gusts of up to 55mph. Transport delays are likely, along with a slight risk of injuries and danger from flying debris.
Stephen Kocher, the Met Office's deputy chief meteorologist, said strong west or south-westerly winds would reach coastal areas of south-west England and Wales tomorrow and spread inland.
