CW Weather Advisory – Gusty Winds/Gales
Valid: Tuesday, 29 September 2026
Risk type: Gusty Winds – Gales
Confidence: High
Overview:
Strong high pressure across Scandinavia clashing with a very deep low west of the UK. This is putting a squeeze on the isobars and as such it will be windy today, particularly across the west of the UK
Blustery Tuesday Ahead for the North West
Strong winds are expected across the region, and they’ll be at their strongest from late morning through the afternoon into the evening, and across the Irish Sea into tonight and overnight. Across most of Cumbria, Lancashire, Merseyside, Greater Manchester and Cheshire, gusts of 25–35 mph are likely. Things step up a notch for some though as we can expect gusts between 35 to 50 mph in some localised spots, especialy lee side of the Pennines, with locations lee side of the hills and moutnains in Cumbria also at risk.
