The Met office has issued a severe weather warning for middle of next week with strong winds with gusts of up to 65 to 75mph.

A spell of strong winds is expected to move northeast through Wednesday, with a small chance that they could be significantly disruptive.

Issuing a yellow warning, The Met Office says a deep area of low pressure is expected to approach southwest Ireland early on Wednesday, and track across northern parts of the UK before clearing early Thursday.

There is some uncertainty on the precise track and depth of the low, however the most likely outcome at present is for a wide swathe of 50 to 60 mph gusts to affect inland areas, perhaps locally stronger over and to the lee of hills in the north.

Some Irish Sea coasts could see gusts of 65 to 75 mph, with a small chance of 80 mph gusts on the most exposed coasts and headlands.
