Storm Bram is causing significant disruption across the UK, with powerful winds and torrential rain. The storm, officially named by Met Éireann, brings strong to very strong winds, with gusts potentially reaching up to ninety miles per hour in exposed parts of northwest Scotland. Heavy and persistent rainfall is also expected, leading to a heightened risk of flooding, especially in regions where the ground is already saturated. North Yorkshire is on high alert, with flood warnings issued for locations along the River Derwent and River Ouse. The storm is also causing widespread travel disruption and pulling unseasonably mild air from the mid-Atlantic, leading to warmer-than-average temperatures for December.
