Storm Eowyn is set to hit Scotland, bringing strong winds and snow. Police advise caution and planning ahead for travel.
The Met Office has issued an amber warning for strong winds in Glasgow and nearby areas from 6 am to 9 pm. Plus, there are two yellow warnings in place—one for snow and another for wind. So, it’s going to be a messy day.
Winds could hit 70 mph inland and even reach 90 mph along the coast. The good news is that the winds should calm down by evening. But until then, it’s best to stay safe.
Police are urging everyone to think twice about traveling. If you can avoid it, do! They recommend checking local travel updates and being prepared for anything. HGV and bus drivers need to be especially careful, and if you’re in a vehicle that’s prone to being blown over, it might be wise to skip the trip altogether.
If you do have to drive, keep your distance from the car in front and make sure your windscreen washer is topped up. Stay safe out there!
