The Met Office has issued an amber wind warning for Northern Ireland as Storm Éowyn approaches. Gusts of up to 90 mph are expected on Friday, January 24, from 6 am to 9 pm, causing potential power cuts and travel disruptions. The storm will bring very strong winds, with peak gusts of 60-70 mph inland and higher along coasts and hills. The winds may temporarily decrease as the storm passes but will increase again later in the day. Travel may be hazardous due to fallen debris and poor visibility. Drivers are advised to exercise caution, especially in exposed areas and during heavy rain.
