Into Friday, things get quieter with some sunshine around and light

winds. For more some sunshine around and light

winds. For more on Doris and its impact, here is the national

weather. Good evening, a rough patch weather

on the way. Time to fasten your seat belt. A high wind warning from the

Met office, an amber one, so pretty severe. Let's see where Storm Doris

is right now, only just developing to the west of the UK, in its early

stages which is not good because it will be at its peak when it crosses

the UK. You can see this hook of cloud which is where the twisting is

starting to happen, which is where the big mid-latitude cyclone is

starting to develop and it will slam into the centre of the UK during the

morning and move across the country through the morning and into the

afternoon. Two rounds from this storm, we will see some snow across

southern and central parts of Scotland first tonight and into the

early hours of Thursday morning. Let's look at the snow, also an

amber warning from the Met office, the Southern uplands, the borders,

including Edinburgh, there could be a fair bit of snow falling by early

morning and we could see scenes like this across some parts of Scotland

which will prove disruptive. And then come the winds. It is still

developing at this stage, still developing, and then bang, it moves

into north-western parts of the UK, a real hammering across

north-western parts of Wales, into Liverpool Bay, Liverpool itself,

Manchester, and this orange area, the amber warning from the Met

office is where the worst of the wind will be with gusts of up to 80

mph possible, and windy to the north and south of it. These kind of

values, we get that every winter but usually to the North West of

Scotland, on the coast and they don't often go inland and when they

do go inland, they often cause problems like this. Take it steady

and take care tomorrow. The good news is, the worst of the wind

probably won't last for very long, a few hours and by the time we get to

Thursday afternoon, it is Lincolnshire, East Anglia, still a

good bloke further south and then by the time we get to about midnight,

and into Friday, the winds are finally starting to die down. Much

calmer on Friday with just a bit of breeze out of the south-west. Some

rain getting to Scotland and Northern Ireland. Not too early to

mention the weekend. It is looking pretty mixed. Some rain, a bit of

sunshine at times as well. Once again, Storm Doris tomorrow and even

if the sun comes out briefly, whatever you
