Met Office issues yellow warning for wind impacting East Lothian

The Met Office has issued a yellow wind warning between 9am and 5pm tomorrow impacting the whole of East Lothian.

The full warning reads: “Strong and blustery south westerly winds will quickly spread southwards across Scotland on Wednesday, reaching Northern Ireland and northern England by late morning or early afternoon. Gusts of 45 to 55mph are expected widely with a few places - most likely hills and coastal areas - likely to see gusts up to 65mph.

“During the late morning and early afternoon high gusts will be accompanied by rain, heavy at times before wind starts to slowly ease from the north later. Over western Scotland, these windy conditions will be accompanied by heavy rain at times.”
