Met Office Warning: Hour by hour forecast as 75mph winds set to pummel city

Portsmouth is set to start 2025 on a windy note as winds of up to 75mph are expected to hit. The yellow weather warning will be in place between 00:15am and 3pm tomorrow (January 1, 2025) - and it will impact a large majority of the country.

The Met Office said: “Strong southwesterly winds are expected overnight and during Wednesday.

“The strongest winds are expected across coastal regions in the west and south of the warning area, where gusts of 65-75 mph are possible.

“Inland, highest gusts will typically be between 45 and 55 mph, but possibly 60 mph in places, particularly in association with the passage of squally cold front which will bring a band of heavy rain southwards.”
