As a powerful storm was moving away from Britain on Monday afternoon after battering the country overnight with a top gust of wind of 99 miles per hour, another was forecast to settle over the region beginning Tuesday, according to the Met Office, the country\u2019s weather service.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is rather unusual in bringing impacts to most of the U.K.,\u201d Grahame Madge, a spokesman for the weather service, said of the fading system called Storm Isha.<\/p>\n

Forecasters had issued a yellow weather warning until midday. The warning is routinely used when people are at risk from certain weather because of their location or activity, and it advises the public \u201cto take preventative action,\u201d according to the meteorological office\u2019s website.<\/p>\n

Late on Sunday night, the Met Office issued\u00a0a red wind warning for overnight covering the northeast coast of Scotland and advised people not to use the roadways. A red warning advises the public to expect \u201ca short spell of extremely strong winds leading to danger to life, structural damage and disruption.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Wind gusts between 73 m.p.h. and 90 m.p.h. were recorded on Sunday,\u00a0the weather office said.<\/p>\n

Weather conditions had also caused headaches for travelers, particularly in Scotland. ScotRail, a train company that operates throughout the country,\u00a0said on social media\u00a0that it was forced to suspend service on Sunday night for safety reasons.<\/p>\n

On Monday afternoon, the company said that trains were still unable to operate on most routes but it was beginning to reinstate some services.<\/p>\n

Similarly, Southeastern, a rail service that connects London to East Sussex, said\u00a0several of its lines were disrupted, prompting some stops to be skipped.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn part, this system has been invigorated by the cold plunge in the east of North America,\u201d said Mr. Madge, adding that the weather pattern \u201chas created a very strong jet, which is helping and propel areas of low pressure, such as Storm Isha, across the North Atlantic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Met \u00c9ireann, Ireland\u2019s meteorological service,\u00a0also issued amber wind warnings for Sunday and Monday, with a status red storm warning covering coastal areas in the north of the country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The service said that the storm was bringing \u201cvery strong\u201d and \u201cgusty southwesterly winds countrywide with strong gales\u201d as well as high waves along coasts.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

The service\u00a0also said\u00a0that \u201ca status red severe weather warning is rarely issued but when it is, people in the areas expected to be affected should take action to protect themselves and\/or their properties.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Storm Isha was moving out, another weather system was expected to sweep across Britain through the middle of the week, the Met Office said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The next one, called Storm Jocelyn, is forecast to bring strong winds and heavy rain to Britain on Tuesday and into Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Tuesday will start out bright, particularly in the east, but clouds and rain will quickly move in from the West. The winds will also pickup and temperatures will be mild for this time of year.<\/p>\n

Wednesday will bring a mix of sunshine and blustery showers as winds are expected to remain strong.<\/p>\n

Britain\u00a0has had exceptional winter weather\u00a0this season. Torrential rains that swept across parts of England this month prompted a wave of weather alerts and travel disruptions. Hundreds of flood alerts were also issued for various communities and rivers.<\/p>\n
