Further weather warning issued with more strong winds forecast for Wrexham

A further weather warning has been issued with more strong winds and heavy rain forecast over the coming days.

The Met Office say that further periods of bad weather are expected on Sunday and Monday.

A yellow warning has been issued with further disruption expected.

The warning is in place between midday on Sunday until 3pm on Monday afternoon.

Gusts are likely to reach up to 56mph at the peak.

The Met Office says: “Winds are likely to strengthen across England and Wales ahead of a band of rain, which itself will turn increasingly squally, as it moves southeast on Sunday afternoon.”

“Gusts of 55-60 mph are expected widely around south and west facing coasts, some of which may be more vulnerable than usual in the aftermath of Storm Eunice.”

“Some places inland may see similar strength gusts, and on the squally rain band itself, gusts potentially as high as 70 mph.”

“Blustery showers will follow with further gusts of 60-70 mph mainly confined to coastal areas in the west during Sunday evening.”

“Whilst a temporary reduction in wind speeds is likely for a time overnight into Monday, winds will again strengthen from the northwest during the morning. ”

“Gusts of 50-60 mph are probable inland, especially Wales and western/central England.”

RAC Breakdown Spokesman Rod Dennis said: “Drivers will be glad to see the back of Storm Eunice but it looks like it will have a sting in its tail with conditions on the roads remaining challenging right through the weekend.”

“With winds still strong and gusty, it’s important drivers don’t take any chances, so we urge them to slow down and leave plenty of space between themselves and the vehicle in front. ”

“It’s not just strong winds that they’ll need to contend with – roads will turn slippery in the north on Saturday, while on Sunday intense rainfall becomes a feature making driving arduous.”

“If conditions get particularly bad again, people should consider postponing their journeys, and for those who have to drive, it’s vital they keep their wits about them at all times.”
