Met Office issue Celtic vs Dundee weather warning for Glasgow

A weather warning has been issued for Glasgow ahead of the Scottish Premiership match between Celtic and Dundee.

The clubs go head-to-head in a league tie at Celtic Park on Saturday with warnings over strong winds caused by Storm Eowyn.

The yellow warning for wind is in place from the early hours of Saturday, January 25 until kick-off at Parkhead at 3pm.

The Met Office have advised there is the chance of travel being impacted by strong winds with air, road, rail and ferry services at risk.

Damage to buildings is also listed in the 'What should I expect?' section of the Met Office website with power cuts and a small risk of danger to life from flying debris.

The yellow warning covers all of Scotland, but it's expected stronger winds will be across the Northern Isles rather than the central belt.

A Met Office statement read: "Storm Éowyn will continue to bring strong winds into Saturday, with some disruption possible."

Further details added: "Strong west to northwesterly winds will persist through the first part of Saturday as Storm Éowyn clears away to the northeast, with gusts of 50-60 mph inland and 60-70 mph over some exposed coasts and hills.

"There is a small chance of 70-80 mph gusts across the Northern Isles for a time.

"Winds will ease across southern parts of the warning area during the early hours of Saturday, and this easing in wind strength will expand northwards through the day on Saturday."
