Further details

Very strong southwesterly winds, associated with Storm Bram, will continue into the early hours of Wednesday, with gusts fairly widely of 60-70 mph, and 80-90 mph in parts of west and northwest Scotland. Winds will ease somewhat inland into Wednesday morning, although it will remain very windy across the Hebrides and western coast. However, another spell of strong westerly winds will develop for a few hours through the afternoon, with gusts widely 50-60 mph inland, and 70-80 mph along exposed coasts and high ground of the Outer Hebrides, northwest mainland and Orkney. This may exacerbate any clean-up operations. Winds will gradually ease in all areas through Wednesday evening.
