A rare red weather warning has been issued for central Scotland, the Isle of Man and Northern Ireland, where 100mph winds are expected to cause havoc. Forecasters fear that Éowyn may be the strongest storm to hit the UK in generations.

Storm Éowyn has already broken Ireland’s record for the highest wind speed, according to the Irish meteorological service.
