The Met Office has issued a Yellow warning for wind for the islands between 04:00 and 16:00 on Tuesday 20 January 2026. You can read full details of the warning on their website.
Ordinarily the strength of wind forecast would not cause much concern across the islands, however the damage sustained during Storm Goretti makes it more likely that we may experience worse impacts than usual.
Please take any precautions you safely can to secure any unstable structures in advance of the warning period, and look out for flying debris and further damage to trees and buildings if outside during or following the high winds tomorrow.
Please do not use any paths which remain closed following Storm Goretti and avoid wooded areas during periods of high winds.
Please call 0300 1234 105 and select the option to speak to our Enquiries Team if you need to report anything you are concerned about in relation to this warning.
Please also continue to keep an eye on the Met Office website for changes to the forecast and keep up with updates from other local organisations via their own channels.
Thank you for your cooperation.
