Salisbury is to be bit with heavy rain and strong winds as Storm Gerrit sweeps across the country.
The Met Office has issued an alert for wind all along the south coast which will be in place from 3am to 6pm.
It does not cover the Salisbury area, but the city is forecast for strong wind and heavy rain on Wednesday, December 27.
It means bus, rail and ferry services could be delayed and journeys by road could take longer. Power cuts are also possible.
