The Met Office issued a red weather warning for Friday as very strong winds are expected to disrupt the country.

A red weather warning has been issued across Scotland's central belt as the country prepares for Storm Éowyn. The Met Office has said high winds could reach 100mph in exposed western coasts and that there could be a risk to life due to flying debris,

Storm forecasters say "a strong event cannot be ruled out" in the UK - with an explosive cyclogenesis caused by a major drop in air pressure bringing the "risk of a few tornados".
