#StormFloris has arrived on Barra! . Looks can often be deceiving from behind a window. Excuse my language when the tree branch fell on top of my car driving home from the hotel. 😬 . Stay safely inside for now folks-warnings should be heeded! ❤️. @BBCScotWeather @SeanBattyTV

#StormFloris is out there somewhere in the Atlantic & will make its way to us-in the Hebrides-by morning. Expected gusts over 80mph. Advised my guests it’ll be early breakfast to allow me to drive safely home by 10am and for them to keep safe and cosy! . Take care people! ❤️

✈️☁️Weather v flights 🌨️✈️. Island weather is paramount to whether daily flights from Glasgow will land on the beach runway. Weather can be unpredictable and surprising at times! All 4 photos taken today within 2 hours. @SeanBattyTV @BBCScotWeather @VisitScotland @FlyLoganair

☀️The sun is shining!. The hidden treasures in Vatersay - a must to see! Walk the coast which includes the settlement in Eorisdale and secluded beaches. Look how small & fragile an island it is! Adhere to the erosion rules!. Photo: John MacDougall. @OuterHebs @VisitScotland
