The Met Office has announced a yellow weather warning for wind across East Lothian tomorrow morning.

Reports indicate that gusts may reach as high as 75mph in certain areas with 50 and 60mph winds expected for most of the morning.

The forecast indicates that people across the county may face disruption from 3am until midday on Thursday.

Snow has also been forecast but is unlikely to affect the county.

Transport delays are likely, and residents are to be aware that road, rail and public transport will be affected by the conditions.

With the county recently having experienced Storm Malik the Met Office have also warned of falling trees which had been weakened by recent stormy conditions.

The Met Office said: “A brief period of severe gale force westerly winds will develop across the Western Isles during the early hours of Thursday morning bringing gusts up to 70-75 mph, the Uists most likely to see the strongest winds.

“Then a brief period of strong to gale west to southwesterly winds will transfer quickly eastwards across the rest of the warning area on Thursday morning, gusts typically around 50 mph, but perhaps approaching 60 mph in a few locations.

“Whilst such wind speeds are not unusual for the time of year, recently weakened trees and structures may mean a greater likelihood of localised damage or disruption.”
