An orange warning for high winds remains in effect across northern Scotland until 9 pm (2000 GMT), while yellow warnings cover all of Scotland, northern England, and north Wales until the end of the day.

A further yellow wind warning is also in place for the rest of England and Wales until 7 pm, as authorities urge motorists and travellers to exercise caution amid the severe weather conditions.
