Another bout of extreme weather is set to bring even more disruption to the UK - just hours after Storm Éowyn wreaked havoc and was dubbed the 'worst storm since 1998'

The Met Office has issued multiple yellow weather warnings as Storm Herminia, named by the Spanish meteorological office, batters the UK.

But as Storm Éowyn starts to sweep in from the west in the early hours of Friday, parts of Northern Ireland will see snowfall, especially Londonderry and Omagh. By 3am, the snow will reach parts of central and southern Scotland, moving north east through the country as the weather front continues to move.

Storm Éowyn has been “pretty exceptional” and was “probably the strongest storm” to hit the UK in at least 10 years, the Met Office has said. A gust of 100mph was recorded at Drumalbin in South Lanarkshire in Scotland yesterday, and parts of Ireland saw the highest windspeeds since records began after they reached 114mph in Mace Head, Co Galway.

From Saturday, Storm Éowyn is predicted to weaken as it moves northeast of the UK. Despite this, Saturday will still be breezy for much of the country, with strong winds persisting in the north, but it will be drier for many.

Storm Éowyn is forecast to make landfall in Ireland late on Thursday before moving on to the rest of the UK on Friday according to Met Office models. The storm will bring gusts of 80mph to coastal areas and 60mph inland with potential for a danger to life caused by flying debris.
