The Met Office has issued two weather warnings for Glasgow with the rest of Scotland also affected.
In the weather update, announced this morning (October 3), forecasters issued the alert for rain and wind with "travel disruption" expected across both days.
According to the latest weather reports, the first of the two warnings is set to come into force from midnight tomorrow where it will remain in place until 10pm the same day.

The Met Office has said that "heavy rain will lead to some travel disruption Tuesday morning" ahead of a second warning for wind the following day.
Discussing the rain warning they said: "Rain will turn heavy and persistent across western Scotland during the early hours of Tuesday, clearing southeast during the morning. Widely 30 to 50 mm of rainfall is likely with perhaps 80 mm over some of the mountains."
The following day (October 5) should see "strong winds" leading to disruption with it coming into force at midnight lasting until 11:59pm. Adding to their reasoning the Met Office continued: "There is a chance of a deep low pressure system bringing gusts of 70 to 80 mph to northern parts of the UK on Wednesday. Should this develop disruption would be expected. However, the most likely scenario is for gusts of 55 to 65 mph within parts of the warning area, most likely the northern Irish Sea and parts of eastern Scotland, bringing some more localised impacts. In addition, heavy rain may prove an additional hazard across north-western areas."
Whilst the rain warning only covers parts of Scotland, the whole of the country is set to be impacted by the wind warning with parts of England also under the warning too.
What the Met Office say to expect
- Bus and train services probably affected with journey times taking longer
- Spray and flooding on roads probably making journey times longer
- There is a small chance of injuries and danger to life from flying debris
- There is a slight chance of some damage to buildings, such as tiles blown from roofs
- There is a small chance of longer journey times or cancellations as road, rail, air and ferry services are affected
- There is a small chance that some roads and bridges could close
- There is a slight chance that power cuts may occur, with the potential to affect other services, such as mobile phone coverage
- There is a small chance that injuries and danger to life could occur from large waves and beach material being thrown onto sea fronts, coastal roads and properties
