Battersea to be hit with winds up to 50mph as Storm Eunice makes it way to London

STRONG WINDS of over 50 miles per hour have been forecast for Battersea tomorrow (February, 18) as the Met Office warns that Storm Eunice could cause "significant disruption" across much of the UK.

Gusts ranging from 41 to 51 mph are expected to hit the town between 09:00 and 13:00 and there will be high winds of over 40mph for much of the day.

It comes as the Met Office issues an Amber Weather Warning for most regions in England including London and the South East, from 3am to 9pm tomorrow, due to the arrival of Storm Eunice.

The Amber warning means that damage to buildings and homes, falling branches, public transport delays and power cuts are all likely as a result of the strong winds.

There is also a good chance that flying debris could result in a danger to life.

A 'warning impact matrix' by the Met Office shows that the winds will be high impact and are quite likely.
