‘It’s likely that some coastal routes, sea fronts and coastal communities will be affected by spray and/or large waves.’

The Met Office adds: ‘An area of low pressure is expected to track across the far south and southeast of the UK from the southwest on Tuesday morning.

‘To the south and east of the low centre some unseasonably strong winds are expected, particularly around some coasts and hills.

‘Here gusts may reach 40-50 mph which may lead to damage to temporary structures and transport disruption.

‘The strong winds will be accompanied by some heavy showers or rain for a time, before gradually moving northeastwards and easing from the southwest through Tuesday daytime.’
