Met Office issues a Yellow weather warning for the Western Isles this weekend.
South-easterly winds will strengthen a little further during Sunday morning, with gusts of 60 to very locally 70 mph probably developing across the Irish Sea, and into the east of Northern Ireland.
This, in combination with high tides, may be enough to generate impacts from large waves in some coastal parts of the Inner and Outer Hebrides; although here later the gusts could strengthen further still to 65-75 mph, and possibly as high as 80 mph in the most exposed parts of the Outer Hebrides.
