Wind and rain affecting the North West
Very strong winds are likely to develop on Thursday evening and overnight into Friday morning.
The strongest winds are then expected to clear into the North Sea early on Friday.
A spokesperson for the Met Office said: "Most likely is that we will see gusts of 45-50 mph in a few spots inland as well as more widely around exposed coasts.
"However, there is a small chance that stronger winds will develop in some areas with 60-65 mph gusts possible, particularly overnight into Friday across eastern England.
"The strong winds will be accompanied by short-lived outbreaks of very heavy rain in places."
