Storm Warnings Issued: Stay Clear of Parks

As a significant storm approaches, meteorological services had warned of potential damage and disruptions. Some council facilities were closed on Saturday, with public warnings issued to avoid forests, country parks, and nature reserves until the storm passes.

The strong winds are projected to continue throughout Saturday night and into Sunday morning before gradually easing later in the day. Consequently, several local authorities announced the closure of public facilities and parks to ensure public safety. The Maritime and Coast Guard agency has also provided safety advice, emphasizing the need to remain well back from cliff edges and to avoid walking near cliff bases.
