"A deep area of low pressure crossing the south of the UK will bring a 'multi-hazard' event through Thursday and into Friday. An Amber warning for wind has been issued for the west of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly where potentially exceptionally strong winds could cause significant impacts. An Amber warning for snow has been issued for most of Wales, the Midlands and southern parts of northern England. Numerous Yellow warnings for wind, snow and rain have also been issued across different regions of England and Wales."
"The strongest winds in the UK associated with this system are expected to affect the west of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly where gusts could reach up to 100mph in exposed coastal locations where the Amber warning is in force. Very large waves will bring dangerous conditions to coastal areas. These are exceptional wind speeds and could be stronger than other storms in recent memory such as Storm Ciaran in 2023 and Storm Eunice in 2022."
"Storm Goretti is also expected to bring a spell of snow, with the largest snowfalls most likely to be across Wales and parts of the Midlands, where a further Amber warning has been issued. Rain will be an additional hazard, particularly for parts of southwest Wales and eastern England as Goretti moves through. Met Office Chief Forecaster Neil Armstrong said, "Storm Goretti will be a multi-hazard event, with the most significant impacts from snow in parts of Wales and the Midlands and the very strong winds in the far southwest, though heavy rain in some parts of Wales and East Anglia also has the potential to bring disruption to many.""
Storm Goretti, driven by a deep area of low pressure crossing southern UK, will produce a multi-hazard event through Thursday into Friday. The west of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly have an Amber wind warning with potential gusts up to 100mph in exposed coastal locations. Most of Wales, the Midlands and southern parts of northern England have Amber snow warnings, with numerous Yellow warnings for wind, snow and rain across England and Wales. Very large waves will create dangerous coastal conditions. Gusts of 50–60 mph will affect far southwest Wales and parts of southern England. Heavy rain may add flooding disruption in southwest Wales and East Anglia.
