If you live anywhere from the Central Lowlands northward, prepare for storm to hurricane-force gusts from 5pm onwards today.
There’s widespread travel disruption already with some lorries being blown over and a gust of 84 mph forcing the complete closure of the Forth Rd Bridge.
Earlier visible satellite view.
Midday update
2pm update
Expect a particularly nasty evening and overnight with gusts of 70-80, perhaps locally 90 mph. That’s including Scotland’s main population zone from Greenock to Edinburgh.
Watch particularly if your travelling north-south, high risk of high profile vehicles being blown over. Damage to trees and buildings are likely.

I will share more on the medium to long range hopefully later this evening but I love the fact ‘most models’ are on board with the blocky, more settled and much colder solution Feb 10th onwards.
GFS ensemble 0-15 day
EPS control.
See video for the discussion.
