UK residents have been told to brace themselves for disruption amid Met Office weather forecasts for Southern Scotland, Wales, and South West England.
The national weather service has warned of spells of heavy rain and strong winds tomorrow (Thursday, November 24).
It has been reported by the Independent that the weather warning could see power cuts with infrastructure and supply at risk throughout the country.

The rain is also likely to cause flooding of homes and businesses and is expected to impact bus and train services in parts of the UK with temperatures likely to be as low as -4C.
The yellow weather warning in Wales and the South West of England is set to last from 10 am to 7 pm tomorrow while the warning in South Scotland should last from 8 am to 2 pm.
Cloudy and rainy weather is expected to last throughout much of the week with some sunny spells.
