As the week progresses, the detail about Storm Barbara will be fined tuned, so it’s definitely worth keeping an eye on the forecast in the coming days.

Late tonight and Wednesday, a Wind Advisory has been posted for central and western North Dakota.

In North Devon, Christmas Eve looks dry and cloudy, while Christmas Day looks like it will be wet.

Even though the risk of severe weather is very low, on or two severe storms cannot be ruled out. Very heavy rains, strong winds are expected looking at the storm’s track.
