The Met Office has issued yellow weather warnings for Storm Amy across large parts of the UK, with the most severe impact expected in Scotland and Northern Ireland, where heavy rain and strong winds could cause travel disruption on Thursday and Friday.
Where are the Storm Amy weather warnings in force?
The live ranking above shows current warnings. Storm Amy covers much of Scotland, Northern Ireland, northern England, and parts of Wales. The most intense conditions are forecast for Scotland, where gusts could reach 70mph, and Northern Ireland, where surface water flooding is likely. London and southeast England are under a lower-impact advisory for localised heavy showers.
What should I expect from Storm Amy?
Disruption is possible from fallen branches, spray on roads, and longer journey times. The Met Office expects two main hazards: heavy rain that may flood low-lying land, and strong winds that could affect bridges and exposed routes.
- Rainfall: 40–60mm expected over 12 hours in western Scotland; 20–30mm across Northern Ireland and northern England.
- Wind: Gusts of 55–70mph on Scottish coasts and hills; 45-55mph inland for Northern Ireland and northern England.
- Timing: Warnings valid from 06:00 Thursday through 21:00 Friday, with peak conditions late Thursday and early Friday.
- Impact: Possible power cuts, ferry cancellations, and delays on rail, air, and road networks.
