Scotland weather warning issued as 75mph winds risk power cuts and travel chaos

The Met Office has warned that high winds will be sweeping across parts of Scotland this week under a weather alert placed in 13 areas.

Scotland has seen plenty of weather warnings coming into force in recent weeks, mostly to do with snow and ice and the dangers that the freezing conditions can bring.

The warning, which was issued on Tuesday, has been updated on Wednesday morning to last until 6pm instead of 1pm today (March 22). It also now covers Orkney but certain areas in Strathclyde and central Scotland have been removed from the warning.
