Much of Scotland is under this blanket, with the amber warning having come into force at 10am and set to end at 11pm today. The Met Office is also warning of possible power cuts and says people should stay indoors and not walk or shelter close to buildings and trees.

The incoming Storm Floris has triggered the Met Office to announce an amber wind warning for Central, Tayside and Fife, Grampian, Highlands and Eilean Siar, SW Scotland, Lothian Borders and Strathclyde across the UK for Monday.

The Met Office has warned that 26 cities in the UK could be hit with power cuts. This could lead to the loss of mobile phone signal and travel disruption due to heavy windstorms on Monday and Tuesday. Northern areas of England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland have all been issued a yellow weather warning.
