Strong Winds Expected To Hit The Isle Of Wight

A Met Office Yellow Weather Warning is in place for strong winds on the Isle of Wight tomorrow (Tuesday) and Wednesday.

The warning comes into force at 9am tomorrow, until midday on Wednesday.

The Met Office said:

"A spell of strong winds is likely to develop across the southwest of England and Wales on Tuesday morning, before spreading east across other parts of England and Wales overnight, clearing into the North Sea on Wednesday.

"Gusts of wind are likely to exceed 50mph for quite a few places, with exposed coasts and hills seeing gusts in excess of 60mph.

"Whilst not exceptional, winds this strong are unusual for August and they will be accompanied by some heavy rain in places, with possible transport disruption and impacts on outdoor activities."
