Storm Malik hits Troon.

Storm Malik: Gusts up to 80mph hit parts of UK.

Gusts of wind up to 80mph are affecting some parts of the UK this weekend, as Storm Malik sweeps in.

Yellow weather warnings are in place across Scotland, Northern Ireland and northern England for most of Saturday.

The strongest winds are expected in eastern Scotland, where there is currently an amber warning.

Scotland Railway reported "a lot of disruption" to train services early on Saturday "due to high winds and fallen trees on some routes".

A ScotRail tweet on Saturday morning said they were working with emergency services to remove the trees and restore the lines "as quickly and as safely as possible", with some cancellations in the Larbert area due to damage to overhead electric wires.

There were also reports of a trampoline blown on to the line in the Kirkcaldy area, which briefly brought the route to a standstill - although trains were able to pass through again within the hour, after the trampoline was removed.

Another storm is also expected to hit Scotland and parts of Northern Ireland, as well as northern and eastern England on Sunday evening, with a yellow warning for wind in place until 12:00 GMT on Monday.

The other warnings in place are:

A yellow wind warning for Scotland, Northern Ireland and northern England from 04:00 until 15:00 on Saturday
A yellow wind warning for Orkney and Shetland from 12:00 until 20:00 on Saturday
An amber wind warning for eastern Scotland from 07:00 until 15:00 on Saturday

Named by the Danish Meteorological Institute, Storm Malik is expected to bring winds of 60mph and up to 80mph in coastal areas, on its way towards Denmark.

The Met Office said Storm Malik's impact would be greatest in Denmark on Sunday but the UK would be "dealt a glancing blow" from Saturday as it moves eastwards.

The forecaster warned injuries and danger to life could occur from flying debris, as well as from large waves and beach material being thrown onto seafronts, coastal roads and properties.

Early on Saturday, ScotRail said speed restrictions were in place on services between Inverness-Wick, Kyle of Lochalsh and Aberdeen, Dundee-Aberdeen and Fort William-Mallaig; a 40mph speed restriction is also in place on services running between Edinburgh and Linlithgow.

The East Coast Mainline, North Berwick branch line, and Borders Railway are also likely be affected.

SP Energy Networks, the company responsible for electricity transmission in central and southern Scotland, issued safety advice ahead of the storm.

It warned that power supplies and mobile phone coverage could also be affected and advised people to keep a battery or wind-up torch to hand and keep mobile phones fully charged.

People should also beware of fallen power lines, said the energy company.
