A yellow weather warning for strong winds has been issued for the Burnham-On-Sea area today (Tuesday).
Storm Barra is set to bring heavy rain and strong gusts of winds, which are forecast to be at their peak during this afternoon and evening.
A deep area of low pressure will move across the UK from the Atlantic, bringing the stormy conditions, according to the Burnham-On-Sea weather forecast.
Frank Saunders, a Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office, says: “Strong winds arriving across the west through the morning, will spread inland and reach eastern areas through the afternoon and early evening.”
”Gusts of 45-50 mph are expected widely, with 60-70 mph in exposed coastal locations. The strongest winds will ease across inland areas into the overnight period.”
Storm Barra is the second named storm of the season.
