Information on update: Warning area has been trimmed to remove parts of central and northern Scotland. The warning has been removed from Northern Ireland where it will still be windy this evening, but any impacts expected to be localised. The end time has been brought forward to dawn on Monday. A spell of strong southwesterly winds will develop on Sunday evening before easing during Monday morning. Gusts of 50-60 mph are expected widely. A brief spell of 70-80 mph gusts, perhaps 85 mph in the most exposed locations, are likely to affect parts of the Hebrides and western Highland coast late evening through the early hours of Monday morning.

Areas of heavy rain will affect western and northern Scotland on Sunday and Monday. During Sunday, as the rain initially moves in, this will readily fall as snow away from lower elevations near the west coast, but as it turns increasingly milder, snow will turn back to rain widely across the warning area. 

40-60 mm of rain could fall quite widely across the warning area, but 80-110 mm of rain is possible over parts of Skye, Lochaber, Argyll and the Trossachs. This coupled with a rapid thaw of lying snow brings the possibility of some flooding.
