People in the South West could be facing an unsettled weekend of weather with heavy rain set to arrive in the region. Tropical Storm Danielle is strengthening into a hurricane across the Atlantic and could lash the UK within days, meteorologists have warned.
The weather system is currently hovering in the middle of the ocean but a Met Office spokesman admitted it was far from clear where it would end up. They said: “Tropical Storm Danielle is expected to remain in the Atlantic over the next five days, moving very slowly but strengthening to hurricane status.
“Following that there are a minority of solutions that track it closer to the UK, hence the potential for swell /surf in from it but most solutions keep it away from the UK. But there is a lot of uncertainty around the track further than five days ahead and we will report on the situation if it is something to be concerned about.”
