⚠️⚠️⚠️ WEATHER WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️

WIND WARNING ISSUED FOR EAST & NORTH YORKSHIRE AS STORM AMY SET TO HIT ENGLAND OVER THE WEEKEND

The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for wind affecting East and North Yorkshire throughout Saturday, as the country prepares for the arrival of Storm Amy.

The warning will be in place from 12 midnight on Saturday until 7pm and will see Storm Amy bring strong and gusty winds.

People living in the warning area are being told to expect the following:

- Possibly some bus and train services affected, with some journeys taking longer

- It’s likely that some coastal routes, sea fronts and coastal communities will be affected by spray and/or large waves

- Some short term loss of power and other services is possible

- Delays for high-sided vehicles on exposed routes and bridges likely

- Some delays to road, rail, air and ferry transport are possible.

West to southwesterly winds will strengthen and become rather gusty on Saturday, with gusts of 45-5 mph possible in places, and perhaps 60-65 mph along some exposed coasts, especially in the west, and briefly over more exposed hills inland.

Winds should then gradually ease later on Saturday.

WOMAN NAMED AS ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY FOR FIRST TIME

The Bishop of London, Dame Sarah Mullally, has been named as the next Archbishop of Canterbury, the first time the role has been performed by a woman.

It's almost a year since Justin Welby resigned as the Archbishop following a review into the handling of a sexual abuse scandal.

It's the first time an archbishop has been chosen since women were allowed to become bishops in 2014.

Bishop Sarah, 63, is married to Eamonn Mullally, and has two children.

She was the UK's chief nursing officers from 1999 to 2004 and was made a Dame Commander of the British Empire in 2005 for services to nursing and midwifery.

Bishop Sarah became Bishop of London in 2018.

“As I respond to the call of Christ to this new ministry, I do so in the same spirit of service to God and to others that has motivated me since I first came to faith as a teenager," she said.

“At every stage of that journey, through my nursing career and Christian ministry, I have learned to listen deeply – to people and to God’s gentle prompting – to seek to bring people together to find hope and healing.

“I want, very simply, to encourage the Church to continue to grow in confidence in the Gospel, to speak of the love that we find in Jesus Christ and for it to shape our actions.

“And I look forward to sharing this journey of faith with the millions of people serving God and their communities in parishes all over the country and across the global Anglican Communion.

“I know this is a huge responsibility but I approach it with a sense of peace and trust in God to carry me as He always has.”
