Batten down the hatches as the Ronaldsway Met Office has issued a Yellow weather warning for severe gales from this evening (January 21).
The weather warning is valid from 3pm this afternoon until 6am tomorrow (January 22) morning.
Storm Isha is expected to hit the island from this evening with strong south or south westerly wind, increasing to gale force.
Gales
According to the Met Office wind speeds will be between 55-65mph, which will potentially lead to travel disruption and damage.
The wind will start to decrease towards dawn on Monday.
Outlook
Sunny spells and a small risk of isolated blustery showers for Monday (January 22), with a risk of it being wet by the end of the night into Tuesday.
Wind will be a westerly or south-westerly 35-45mph with glorious gusts of 50-60mph, panic not as they will decrease 20-25 later on.
Rain, rain and more rain
Tuesday (January 23) its going to rain, which will be heavy at times, but will clear later in the day with clear intervals developing.
It starts off not so windy with 20-25mph, but will pick up to gusts of 60mph later in the day.
I’m not encouraging a sick day, but if you were to have one, a day when the Met Office comments are “Strong to gale force winds. Risk of heavy rain”… that would be the day I’d take.
