UK Weather: Wind messes up UK travel plans
According to BBC Weather experts, forecasts suggest that winds will gradually ease through Sunday afternoon and evening.
Much quieter weather is expected from Monday, with it actually getting warmer though to Christmas Eve.
When it comes to driving to see friends and family, road experts have also said this will be the busiest weekend of travel of the year, urging drivers to “be patient”.
The Automobile Association (AA) warned of a “perfect storm” of Christmas getaways and bad weather with a predicted 22.7 million drivers hitting the road on Saturday and 21.3 million on Sunday.
RAC spokesman Rod Dennis said: “Allow yourself a bit of time to make it easy and get there safely.”
And travel expert Simon Calder advised that even though roads are expected to be busy on Sunday, they will likely be less busy than on Monday or Tuesday when people make their final getaways before Christmas.
