Storm Herminia live tracker map shows where UK will be hit with 75mph winds

The UK will be swept by more high-speed winds in the coming days as the debris from Storm Eowyn settles.

Dubbed Storm Herminia by Spanish weather forecasters, the system hasn’t quite met the UK Met Office’s criteria of a named storm.

But with trees toppled, power lines down and buildings left with gaping holes blown into them by Storm Eowyn, Herminia could still cause some major damage.

Met Office meteorologist Jonathan Vautrey said: ‘Obviously places maybe currently have a bit of a lower threshold for wind strengths at this stage, following all the disruption and damage that’s been put in place.

‘It is something that people certainly need to be wary of, and still taking care of, as we head into Sunday and into the start of the new working week as well – the risk of localised flooding, further flying debris and travel disruption is possible as a result of all of this.’

Winds of around 70mph have hit parts of southwest England already this Sunday morning.

They’re expected to extent across parts of southern and western England, Wales and Northern Ireland later today and Monday, but at lower speeds.

For the most part, the storm will steer clear of the UK, hovering over Ireland and the Atlantic before it dissipates.

Vautrey said: ‘This is certainly going to be a notch down compared to Eowyn, whilst there is the potential for 60 to 70mph gusts of wind across the very far south west generally, we’re not going to be seeing the same strengths of winds as we have seen over the last couple of days.’

Even so, the Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for wind covering Northern Ireland, Wales, and most of Scotland and the west coast of England from Sunday.

A yellow rain warning has also been issued across much of Wales, southern England and the Midlands.

This, along with high speed winds across the south, are expected to last until Monday or Tuesday.
