Met Office weather warnings: Yellow and amber alerts for rain and wind issued for UK as Storm Bram hits - full list regions affected

The Met Office has put out an alert for areas of Scotland, Wales, and southwest England, with treacherous conditions expected throughout today and into tomorrow morning. "Storm Bram will bring a very wet and windy spell of weather, with very strong winds and further heavy rain," advised chief forecaster Dan Suri.

Northwest Scotland is expected to bear the worst of the weather, with an amber warning issued for "very strong and disruptive winds" - potentially upwards of 90mph. Sky News meteorologist Dr Christopher England warned many areas could face disruption from "damaging gusts".

Damage to buildings and homes, travel disruption, flooding, and power cuts are all possible. Travel disruption is likely, with roads, bridges, and railway lines all vulnerable to closure. Delays and cancellations on buses, trains, ferries, and flights are possible.
