WIND WARNING: Yorkshire Coast Now Included

The Met Office have added the whole Yorkshire Coast to their Yellow Warning for strong winds today.

Storm Otto has already closed the A1 due to a number of overturned vehicles.

It is the first named storm of the season in the UK.

Here's details of the weather warning, issued for the Yorkshire Coast in the last hour and valid until 2:00pm today:

A spell of strong winds is expected during Friday morning, easing from the west during the afternoon. Winds will be strongest over, and immediately to the east of high ground, with gusts of 50-60 mph. Gusts as high as 65 mph are possible in places. High-sided vehicles may be particularly impacted.

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
