Information on update: Warning start time brought forward slightly to account for slightly earlier onset of strong southerly winds across the Isles of Scilly and western Cornwall. Strong west to northwesterly winds will spread across southern parts of England and Wales during Thursday night and into Friday. Gusts of 50-60 mph are likely and some coastal or exposed areas could see 70 mph or more, this more likely over parts of southwest England. Ahead of this, a spell of southerly winds with gusts of 50-60 mph will move east along the south coast of England during Thursday night. Winds will slowly ease during Friday afternoon. Strong winds will be also combined with periods of heavy rain making for difficult travel conditions. For further details see https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/warnings-and-advice/uk-warnings.
