A new weather warning has been issued for parts of North Wales following Storm Eunice.

Parts of Wales are under a red weather warning today, indicating a “danger to life”, because of extremely high winds.

The Met Office has now issued a yellow weather warning for Sunday and Monday, due to more high winds.

The warning will come into force at midday on Sunday and run until midday on Monday.

It covers Denbighshire and Flintshire.

What to expect from Met Office weather warning

This is what the Met Office are warning to expect:

  • There is a slight chance of some damage to buildings, such as tiles blown from roofs
  • There is a small chance that injuries and danger to life could occur from large waves and beach material being thrown onto sea fronts, coastal roads and properties
  • There is a small chance of longer journey times or cancellations as road, rail, air and ferry services are affected

A spokesman added: “Another spell of very strong winds is expected in parts of Northern Ireland, Scotland and also some Irish Sea coasts.

“Winds could gust to 50 to 60 mph inland, and between 70 and 80 mph for a time on the mountains and exposed coasts, with large waves expected as well.

“The strong winds will be accompanied by heavy, frequent and increasingly wintry showers with blizzard conditions expected in the mountains, before conditions ease later on Monday.”
