The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for wind which covers the whole of the region on Sunday.

Key information

More information

Southerly to southwesterly winds are expected to increase through Sunday morning, peaking late morning to early afternoon with gusts of 50-60mph, and perhaps as much as 70mph in exposed spots along Irish Sea coastlines, Scottish Islands, and other areas of high ground further inland. 

Rain will accompany strong winds, which will make for very poor weather conditions, especially on roads. Winds will then ease from southwest to northeast of the warning area through the afternoon and early evening.

Localised rain warning

Please note a yellow weather warning for rain is also in place for western parts of the Borders on Friday.
