Storm Finn Set to Slam South Coast with 80mph Winds and Dangerous Gusts
The South coast is bracing for a brutal battering as Storm Finn threatens to unleash 80mph winds over the next 48 hours. A powerful weather bomb is poised to explode across the UK, triggering gale-force winds and heavy wintry showers.
Gale Warnings Across England
Storm Finn is expected to hit hardest from Wednesday night through Thursday morning. The Met Office has issued nationwide weather warnings with gusts strong enough to damage buildings and send flying debris hurtling through the air, posing a real “danger to life.”
Winds will start picking up across the South on Tuesday before ramping up to full force on Wednesday. Experts warn that the storm will undergo “explosive cyclogenesis” as it barrels across Britain, intensifying into a fierce “weather bomb.”
Storm Finn Could Be This Season’s Sixth Named Storm
The Met Office has yet to officially name the storm but is closely monitoring the brewing chaos. If confirmed, Storm Finn will be the sixth named storm of the 2017/18 winter, adding to an already turbulent season.
