"Although there is still some uncertainty about the exact track Storm Amy will take, the system will bring gale force winds across northern and western regions, with gusts widely reaching 50 to 60 miles per hour inland in northern Britain, and potentially reaching 70 to 80 miles per hour in places. With even stronger gusts on exposed coasts and hills, mainly in the northwest."
"Storm Amy is set to bring heavy rain and strong winds to parts of Scotland and we expect to see disruption to the transport network in the warning areas. The rain and wind will bring difficult driving conditions, such as reduced visibility and surface water, and are also likely to affect the ferry and rail networks, so it's important to plan your journey ahead of time."
The Met Office issued weather warnings as Storm Amy rapidly develops from Friday, fed by remnants of Hurricanes Humberto and Imelda. Remnants are expected to bring almost a foot of rain to parts of the UK, with a 37-hour yellow rain warning for western Scotland between Wednesday evening and Friday morning. Gale-force winds are forecast across northern and western regions, with gusts of 50–60 mph inland and 70–80 mph in places, stronger on exposed coasts and hills. Heavy rainfall, especially over western Scotland (30–50 mm in 6–9 hours), raises localized flooding risk and potential power and transport disruption. Motorists are advised to plan journeys, check Traffic Scotland and operators, and expect ferry and rail impacts.
