A force eight gale is forecast to affect the Western Isles later.

Winds will pick up in strength over Saturday night with a gale predicted for exposed locations on Sunday.

Gusts up to 50mph will whip up rough seas and cause ferry disruptions on the west coast .

Benbecula, South Uist and Barra are set to get the brunt of the bad weather - with heavy rain likely over the day.

It will feel cold in the strong easterly winds, these easing later.

The Met Office said a band of low pressure moving erratically northeastwards across the United Kingdom, will bring unsettled and occasionally windy conditions during the next couple of days.
