A weather warning for wind has been issued for Gwynedd this Easter.

The Met Office has issued the yellow warning for wind for Easter Saturday and Sunday.

It comes into effect at 6pm on Saturday, 4 April and will be in force overnight until 12pm on Sunday, 5 April.

The Met Office said: “A rapidly deepening area of low pressure is likely to move northeastwards close to or across northwestern parts of the UK during Saturday evening and night, clearing to the North Sea by Sunday.

“Whilst there is some uncertainty over the exact track, intensity and shape of this area of low pressure, a period of strong west to southwesterly winds is expected during Saturday night and into the first part of Easter Sunday, before gradually easing through the day.

“Peak gusts of 50-60 mph will be possible fairly widely, with 60-70 mph in more exposed locations.”
