A yellow weather warning has been issued for Wednesday (January 1st) with “very strong winds expected to lead to some disruption.”
The warning is in force in the Burnham area from 7am on January 1st until midnight.

“Gusts of 65-75mph are likely around coasts and hills, especially in the south and west, with 50-60mph gusts likely fairly widely inland.”
The Burnham-On-Sea weather forecast shows the high winds will peak locally from 4am through to 9am on Wednesday.
