gust

Gusts of 60-70mph are forecast with occasional gusts of up to 85mph also possible, so some damage is still likely throughout Saturday.

The Met Office has issued weather warnings for wind and rain, as gusts may bring a risk of injuries from flying debris.

An amber warning for wind is in place for five hours on Friday across western counties, with gusts of 60-70mph expected inland and up to 80mph along exposed coasts.

A yellow warning for wind gusting to up to 60mph - and up to 70mph in exposed areas - has been issued for all of Scotland from 15:00 on Friday to midnight on Saturday.

While the fire initially burned eastward, firefighters soon reported that it was spreading “everywhere all at once” with wind gusts between 70-90 MPH.
