Batten down hatches as first named storm arrives

A yellow weather warning is in place from Friday evening until midnight on Saturday. Wind speeds could reach 80mph in some exposed areas.

This is the first named storm of the season. The high winds will be accompanied by heavy rain.

The Met Office said: “Storm Amy is expected to bring a spell of very strong winds to many parts of northern Britain (including North Wales) - later on Friday and into Saturday. Westerly winds will pick up during Friday, initially in the west before extending eastwards during Friday night.

“Gusts of 50 to 60mph are likely for many areas and may reach 60 to 70mph in some places for a time. Exposed coasts and hills will see the highest gusts which could exceed 80 mph.
