A gust of 100mph was recorded at Drumalbin in South Lanarkshire in Scotland yesterday, and parts of Ireland saw the highest windspeeds since records began after they reached 114mph in Mace Head, Co Galway.

By 3am, the snow will reach parts of central and southern Scotland, moving north east through the country as the weather front continues to move.
