<\/p>\nA yellow wind warning comes into force for most of England and all of Wales at 8pm tonight – with people told to expect travel disruption and power outages.<\/p>\n
The Met Office, which issued the warning, has said gusts of up to 55mph are expected widely inland, while 70mph winds are possible along exposed coasts and hills.<\/p>\n
The warning will be in place from 8pm on Sunday until 6pm on Monday and covers almost the whole of England – with only the northernmost parts not affected by the warning.<\/p>\n
Manchester, Leeds, Hull and York are all in the warning area along with the whole of Wales.<\/p>\n
There are no warnings in place for Northern Ireland or Scotland.<\/p>\n
Sky News weather producer Joanna Robinson said: “The strong winds will bring the risk of travel disruption, especially on Monday morning, with local power cuts possible.<\/p>\n
“The strong winds will ease later on Monday as the low-pressure system moves away.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Met Office has advised people to prepare for disruption by checking road conditions if driving and changing their travel plans if necessary.<\/p>\n
People are also advised to gather torches, batteries, a mobile phone power bank and other essential items in case of power cuts.<\/p>\n
