Storm Herminia has led the Met Office to issue a host of new weather warnings for the UK this morning, with heavy rain and wind expected to hit the country over the next 24 hours

Flooding and travel disruption threat as Met Office weather warnings come into effect - A yellow wind warning is in place until 6am on Tuesday for large parts of southern England, including the capita

Stormy conditions are set to continue today (Monday), with a series of weather warnings issued across England and Wales by the Met Office. The Environment Agency has also issued 52 red flood warnings as of 6.

The Met Office recommends keeping essentials such as warm clothes, food, and water in cars due to the likelihood of travel delays.

But as Storm Éowyn starts to sweep in from the west in the early hours of Friday, parts of Northern Ireland will see snowfall, especially Londonderry and Omagh. By 3am, the snow will reach parts of central and southern Scotland, moving north east through the country as the weather front continues to move.

The Met Office has warned Storm Eowyn could see winds of up to 90mph hammer parts of the UK, with 'widespread disruption and significant impacts expected'

Amid the threat of 100mph winds at times, the Met Office is urging households to ensure bins, plant pots and garden furniture (bring inside or secure in place) are secure.

Storm Éowyn is forecast to make landfall in Ireland late on Thursday before moving on to the rest of the UK on Friday according to Met Office models. The storm will bring gusts of 80mph to coastal areas and 60mph inland with potential for a danger to life caused by flying debris.

A flurry of fresh weather warnings for wind and rain have been issued for Sunday after Storm Eowyn battered the British Isles with hurricane-force winds. Flights were cancelled, major rail routes closed and ferry services axed on Saturday after winds surpassing 100mph hit parts of Britain throughout Friday.
