Double Rainbow:

Warning of rain and gale force winds for Friday

If you’re planning an outdoor activity on Friday afternoon/evening, be aware of this Met Office severe weather warning for the Isle of Wight just issued.

It’s valid from 1200 on Friday (24 July) to 0900 on Saturday (25 July) 2015.

It reads,

An area of rain and strong to gale force winds is expected to cross much of southern England before clearing to the east on Saturday morning.

There is a low likelihood that the system could be intense enough to bring disruptive wind and rain to some parts. The public should be aware of the potential for disruption particularly for those engaged in outdoor activities.

Fingers crossed the Island misses the bad weather.
