The Met Office has issued a rare red weather warning for Scotland with Storm Éowyn set to hammer the country tomorrow. An Atlantic jet stream is pushing the "dangerous" weatherfront to the UK's shores in the early hours of Friday, January 24.

The national forecaster has put a number of weather alerts in place over the coming days, with the entire UK covered by at least one warning.

The red weather warning is the most extreme that can be issued, as the Met Office predicts it has a high likelihood and will have a high impact.Storm Éowyn's galeforce blasts are expected to reach up to 100mph in some areas and cause "very dangerous conditions and significant disruption".

The red alert is in place from 10am on Friday, January 24, until 5pm that day. The warning area stretches from Eyemouth on the east coast to the Isle of Mull off the west coast and down to the southwestern tip of the country past Stranraer.
