After a largely dry and bright Easter bank holiday weekend, the region is now in for unsettled weather.
The Met Office has put two wind warnings in place, that covers most of the western parts of the UK, including Merseyside. The warnings are in place as a low-pressure system has developed meaning it's likely to be wet and windy from today, on Tuesday, April 11 and into Wednesday.
Forecasters have predicted that winds of up to 60mph will have the potential to cause travel disruption and large waves in coastal areas. Despite weather staying fairly warm, at 12C, severe gales are expected at times and temperatures could drop to 8C through the week.

Met Office deputy chief meteorologist Steven Keates said: "The focus for the medium-range forecast is a low-pressure system that’s likely to develop just to the southwest of the UK, potentially bringing a period of high winds and heavy rain late on Tuesday and into Wednesday.
"There’s a distinct possibility of some disruptive wind for parts of the UK, especially in southern and western areas, as well as potential for heavy rainfall and even some snow, though the latter probably confined to high ground in the north.
"Although subject to a large degree of uncertainty, gusts of wind could be in excess of 60 mph in some exposed upland or coastal regions, with around 35-50 mm of rain possible for some areas."
