Parts of Wales are about to get very windy as the Met Office has updated its two yellow weather warnings for Wales for Tuesday and Wednesday. The two warnings for high wind were issued following a mild Easter weekend and have since been altered to reflect a higher chance of larger areas of Wales set to be battered by high winds, with coastal areas predicted to have notably worse weather.
Even in areas not covered by the warning, winds will reach speeds upwards of 40mph in the next couple of days as the Met Office warns transport and power could be disrupted. In areas covered by the warnings, 53mph winds are expected to hit coastal towns and cities during a cloudy and drizzly couple of days - and ITV's Ruth Dodsworth has predicted 2-3cm of snow on the "highest hills," saying there will be "no disruption" but it will feel "bitterly cold" on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Weatherman Derek Brockway says it'll feel "more like winter" on Wednesday in Wales, but "more like spring" afterwards as a "soft heatwave" has been predicted towards the end of the month. For now, it will be wet and windy - the Met Office predicts: "Largely dry to start though heavy rain and strong winds from around midday with gales, locally severe, likely around coasts. Feeling colder than of late, especially in exposed areas. Maximum temperature 11 °C."
