At that check, the Met Office warning page showed an amber wind warning affecting parts of Scotland, ending at 21:00 GMT on 25 October. It forecast possible disruption to transport and services. A warning describes expected impacts; it does not mean every road or booked service is closed.
Traffic Scotland's Storm Boelo notice also described a wider yellow wind warning covering mainland Scotland, the Western Isles and Orkney. It advised travellers to follow police and operator advice and consider whether journeys could be delayed.
Check the move before departure
- Contact your removal company about the route, vehicle and loading arrangements. Ask what happens if either address cannot be reached, and agree how you will communicate any change.
- Check Traffic Scotland's current travel information, including the relevant route and bridge information. If your journey includes a ferry, train or flight, check directly with its operator.
- Tell the person arranging keys or access about any delay. Confirm a revised handover rather than assuming someone will still be waiting at the original time.
- Keep essential documents, medicines, phone charging equipment and overnight items accessible. Our essentials-box guide helps you separate these from the main load.
Use the moving-day schedule builder to record agreed changes, and our guide to moving-day delays to organise the next calls. Keep revised timings and any extra-cost agreement in writing.
