Met Office issues yellow weather warning for Wales on expected hottest day of the year

A yellow weather warning for wind has been issued for parts of Wales by the Met Office. After a bleak month, it looks like March is set to come to a windy close with gales of up to 70mph forecast for parts of the country. But fortunately, spring is definitely on its way as alongside the weather warning the Met office has also said Wales is expected to get its warmest day of the year so far on Thursday, with temperatures peaking at 15C.

The warning, which primarily covers the south coast of the country is in place from 9pm on Thursday, March 30 to 12pm on Friday. It reads: "Strong winds may affect parts of southern England and south Wales during Thursday evening and Friday morning.

"A deep area of low pressure is expected to move eastwards across southern Britain during Thursday evening and Friday morning, bringing spells of strong southerly winds, then a lull, followed by strong west or northwesterly winds. There is uncertainty over the track and depth of the low and this affects how strong the wind will be.
