WEATHER WARNING AS 80MPH STORM SET TO HIT DERRY – FOLLOWED BY SNOW

written by John January 8, 2015

weather alertDERRY will be battered by a ‘vicious’ storm tonight with forecasters issuing a weather warning for the North West.

The full force of the storm could bring winds of up to 80mph, strong enough to close the Foyle Bridge and cause damage to power lines.

The Met Office has issued a weather warning from 8pm this evening until 10am tomorrow.

But that won’t be the end of it.

A further warning has been issued for this Saturday and Sunday – from 6am on Saturday morning until noon on Sunday.

“Heavy showers are likely across the warning area, these falling as snow at low levels across much of Scotland and Northern Ireland,” said the Met Office.

“Within the area there could be localised small snow accumulations away from immediate coasts at low levels in the north, whilst over high ground 5-15 cm may occur in places.

“Temperatures will fall significantly during Saturday, this also posing the risk of ice where showers occur.

“The public should be aware of the potential for disruption, for example to transport and power supplies.”
