Red weather warning for Island remains

A red weather warning is in operation with winds of up to 85mph due to hit between lunchtime and 6pm. 

 

This is likely to cause structural damage, fallen trees and localised flooding with the north-east likely to be worst affected. 

 

The Mountain Road remains closed until further notice - yesterday teams worked to remove around 750 tonnes of debris after a landslip caused by Thursday's heavy rain.
