There’s a storm coming in toward Scotland – it’ll brush by Northern Ireland, and deliver strong winds, if not gales through the rest of Ireland and Northern England. The UK Met Office have issued a “red warning” for tomorrow, and the Guardian covers it in more detail.
It was a very stormy autumn, and it looks like that’s not abating quickly – aside from this one, the forecast models are predicting an even stronger one early next week. That’s not reliable at this stage, of course, but it’s an illustration of the amount of energy coming in from the North Atlantic at this time of year.
With most of the trees now leafless, and several other storms in the recent past, it’s unlikely that there will be many more trees brought down. Drivers of high-sided vehicles should be careful, though, and umbrellas can be safely declared useless for the duration. In addition, temperatures are going to be fairly low throughout, so the wind chill will be fairly nasty – wrap up well.
