A weather map created by the Met Office has shown the speed and direction that the gale-force winds will hit Edinburgh during the day today.
Forecasters put out a yellow weather warning for Edinburgh and the rest of Scotland on February 16, beginning at 3am this morning and ending at 3pm in the afternoon.
Winds have reached up to 80mph across Scotland overnight, as the Forth Road Bridge closed off to all traffic, due to safety fears. Disruptions have occurred across the capital, with drivers warned before heading out onto the winds.
