Storm Éowyn is set to hit the Midlands, bringing strong winds and potential power cuts. Stay safe and prepared for disruptions this Friday
Birmingham: So, it looks like the West Midlands is in for a rough ride with Storm Éowyn. The Met Office is warning us about possible power cuts because of some seriously strong winds coming our way.
This Friday, they’re predicting winds could hit between 50 and 60 mph, with some areas even seeing gusts up to 63 mph. That’s pretty wild! It’s not just a little breeze; it could really shake things up.
People in Birmingham and the surrounding areas should be ready for some disruptions. The Met Office has said that power cuts might leave homes in the dark and could even mess with mobile phone signals.
They’re also cautioning about potential damage to buildings, like roof tiles getting blown off. Yikes! And let’s not forget about the risk of injuries from flying debris. It’s definitely a good idea to stay indoors if you can.
The Yellow weather warning kicks in at midnight on Friday and lasts all day, so keep an eye on the weather and stay safe out there!
