Despite Storm Éowyn battering parts of the UK over the past 48 hours, further wind and rain has been forecast for Merseyside. Storm Herminia, named by the Spanish meteorological office, will bring more gusty gales and heavy rain.

The storm, which did not meet the criteria to be named by the Met Office, is set to bring more significant impacts in Spain, but wet and windy weather is also forecast for the UK.

A yellow weather warning for wind is in place for Liverpool today. The affects of the storm in Spain are expected to be felt in the UK as it moves east throughout the day, hitting the South West first where the strongest winds are expected.

According to The Met Office website, the North West will 'feel chilly' with a maximum temperature of 6 °C on Sunday. Outbreaks of rain and hill snow over higher ground will arrive through the day, turning heavy and persistent at times during the afternoon.

Sunday night will see rain and winds ease, but further wet weather is likely overnight. The minimum temperature will be 2°C. Met Office Chief Meteorologist Jason Kelly said: “The influence of Storm Éowyn on the UK’s weather will diminish as it moves further north and east on Saturday morning, but there’s little respite in the conditions for some with the next area of low pressure arriving from the southwest on Sunday.

“While Sunday’s system doesn’t have the same strength as Eowyn, it will hamper some recovery efforts and bring further wind and rain, with the possibility of some flooding in places. 10-20mm of rain will fall quite widely on Sunday in central and southern England, much of Wales and Northern Ireland, with 30-50mm possible over high ground. Thundery showers could top up totals later in the day for some.

“With this rain falling on saturated ground in many places, there’s a chance of flooding for some, with winds an accompanying hazard with the system.”
