The Met Office issued a red weather warning along the coastline of Devon and Cornwall for Friday 18/02/2022 as well as the south coast of Wales, due to extremely strong winds.
Experts are warning that the storm approaching poses a significant danger to life and therefore People in areas with weather warnings are being told to stay indoors where they can.
The Met Office has said people should expect disruptions to power lines and travel across Friday.
They also stated that Britons in the wind-affected areas can expect ‘flying debris’, ‘damage to buildings and homes’, ‘uprooted trees’, ‘power cuts’ and ‘beach materials being thrown onto coastal roads’.
Threats include roads, bridges and railway lines being closed with delays and cancellations to public transport, ferry services and flights, and large waves plus “beach material” being thrown on to coastal roads, seafronts and homes, which could result in flooding for some coastal properties.
