He said: “There will be some heavy rainfall, potential for flying debris, potential for disruption to travel and infrastructure in places.” Meanwhile, much of the Republic of Ireland is covered by a red wind warning – the highest level of alert – which came into place in the early hours and will last until 8am, with an orange warning which is set to carry on until 10am in parts. Jason Kelly, chief meteorologist at the Met Office, said: “The strongest winds are expected to affect parts of the Republic of Ireland early on Monday, possibly coinciding with the morning commute, before then affecting parts of north Wales and northern England into the afternoon. “Additionally, Debi will bring a period of heavy rain to Northern Ireland for which a combined wind and rain warning has been issued.” Simon Partridge, a spokesman for the Met Office, added: “For parts of north-west Wales and England, there is a possibility of 70 to 80mph winds.
