🌪️STORMY WEEKEND🌪️
Storm Éowyn has now been named
Windy says hey guys. I don’t know what’s happening with my posts but an awful lot of you aren’t getting them (and if you are, you aren’t reading them 🤷‍♂️)
See bottom right hand corner - Sunday 19th (that’s when this was posted) and I’ve been talking about it most days since . . . This is how it’ll be looking on Thursday afternoon
This is a WIND event for Scotland on FRIDAY, but we’ll get the rain and SNOW as well (starting on Thursday. As forecast)
Anyway. If yer travelling on Friday I would think about a Plan B (Boat. Bus. Train)
I’m thinking parts of western Scotland, the SW, southern & central Scotland, before it moves up into the NE later on
It’s only TUESDAY just now, so a lot could change between now and then so make sure you are reading the most current forecasts (they’re all date/time stamped for a reason)
PS - SNOW Thursday and Friday for some. Not all. Mostly across the HIGH ground (but that won’t include Fife at sea level ken.)
