Be heeded as it can indicate a risk to life,” said Alice Simpson, a RAC Breakdown spokeswoman. “We strongly advise drivers to postpone their journeys.
If at all possible, as the wind is expected to batter parts of Wales and the South West between 3am and 11am on Saturday.”
Anyone who must drive should stay on major routes, slow down considerably, have a tight grip on the steering wheel at all times, and be very vigilant for road debris.
“Coastal and exposed rural roads will be especially dangerous. Any high-sided vehicles should be avoided by drivers in these locations since they run the danger of being blown over or, worse, buffeted off course.
Because of the risk of falling limbs or uprooting whole trees, we also advise parking far from huge trees.
