Powerful storm Pia is expected to have an impact on United Kingdom travel plans during the Christmas season. In light of the fact that the subsequent gusts of 80 mph in certain UK regions might be uncomfortable in certain circumstances.
Strong gusts that are expected to cause chaos in the lead-up to Christmas have prompted the Met Office to issue a yellow weather warning.
Apart from this, gales will occur in certain places that reach 80 mph. Additionally, from midnight tonight until Thursday evening, a vast portion of England will be impacted.
This warning is sent out before the weekend to British citizens who have been preparing to return home for Christmas. They are probably going to anticipate delays in their travel related to road and rail services.
On Thursday morning, Network Rail canceled a number of services in Scotland because it is currently difficult for employees to inspect the lines for damage and debris.
Met Office Spokesperson Grahame Madge has reiterated that snow is expected to fall in the UK during the Christmas season. He informed the media that this year’s White Christmas is probably in store for the UK.
Winds of 70–80 mph have been known to occasionally hit exposed coasts and high ground, mostly in Scotland’s far north. It is crucial to stay informed about the most recent Met Office forecast because there is a possibility that this low pressure system will continue to have an impact through Friday.
In addition, Shetland’s schools will be closed today as additional energy network engineers are called in to address the power outages. Apart from that, the ferry services and the west coast of Scotland are probably going to be affected.
Vehicles with high sides will be affected on coastal and exposed routes and may be sprayed by high waves.
