The Chief Forecaster’s assessment is: “The strongest winds will affect south-west England and Wales during the morning, moving east to reach eastern parts of England later in the afternoon.
“Gusts of 50-60mph are likely fairly widely with some gusts reaching 65-75mph along exposed coasts and over high ground in the west.”
