A new storm is set to hit Tayside, Fife and Stirling with more strong winds forecast for the region.

The area was hit with gusts of more than 107mph on Sunday night into Monday during Storm Isha.

The storm left roads blocked by trees and several schools were closed.

Hundreds were also left without power.

A fresh Met Office yellow weather warning for wind comes into force across Dundee, Angus, Perth and Kinross, Fife and Stirling at 4pm on Tuesday.

The warning, which coincides with the arrival of Storm Jocelyn, runs until noon on Wednesday.

Gusts of more than 50mph are being forecast for some areas and heavy rain is also expected.

The Met Office warning says more disruption to travel and utilities is possible.

It also warns that “injuries and danger to life could occur from large waves and beach material being thrown on to sea fronts, coastal roads and properties”.

On Monday, ScotRail confirmed that they will suspend all services from 7pm, with rush hour services on Wednesday morning also stopped.

LNER confirmed that their 6.18pm service from Aberdeen to Leeds will now begin in Edinburgh.

This means that the train will not call at Montrose, Arbroath, Dundee, Leuchars or Kirkcaldy.

A separate yellow rain warning runs from 7am until 6pm on Tuesday, covering western parts of Perthshire and Stirling.

The Met Office forecast for Central, Tayside and Fife suggests some drier weather is on the way later in the week but it could remain blustery.
