The warning is place between Sunday afternoon and Monday lunchtime

Strong winds could cause damage and travel disruption across parts of north Wales, the Met Office has said.

It has issued a yellow weather warning, external for Flintshire, Denbighshire, Conwy, Gwynedd and Anglesey, from Sunday at 15:00 GMT.

Wind gusts of up to 60mph (96km/h) could occur, mostly along coastlines and over exposed hills, it warned.

Storm Corrie has led to an amber weather warning along the east coast of Scotland and north-east England.

The Met Office has warned:

  • Road, rail, air and ferry services may be affected, with longer journey times and cancellations

  • Some roads and bridges may close

  • Power cuts may occur

  • "Injuries and danger to life" from large waves and debris being thrown on to susceptible seafronts

The weather warning is expected to be lifted at noon on Monday.
