The Met Office has issued two yellow weather warnings for this weekend as Storm Malik brings strong winds to the region.
Denmark will see the highest impact from the named storm on Sunday, the Met Office said, but Storm Malik’s track will bring high winds to much of Scotland, Northern Ireland and parts of northern England on Saturday.
Gales are likely to cause "some travel disruption" across the North West, while coastal areas could see "large and dangerous waves", the Met Office said.
Gusts could reach up to 80mph in exposed coastal areas, with other areas seeing speeds of around 60mph.
Yellow weather warnings for wind are in place from 4am to 3pm on Saturday, and from 6pm on Sunday to 12pm on Monday.
The Met Office said: "On Sunday evening a spell of strong northwesterly winds is likely to develop across western Scotland, and then progress southeastwards eventually easing away from the North Sea coastlines during Monday morning.
"The strongest wind gusts will mostly occur around the coastlines and over the hills, with many of these exposed locations expected to see gusts reach 50-60 mph for a time.
"In addition, a small chance that a very limited part of the area could see a short period of more damaging gusts, that could reach 60-70mph inland, and 70-80mph around exposed coasts and hills."
Met Office Chief Meteorologist Paul Gundersen added: “The impacts of Storm Malik are going to be greatest in Denmark on Sunday, but the track of the storm in the preceding hours means that the UK will be dealt a glancing blow as Malik moves eastwards on Saturday.
“For those in the north of the UK there will be high winds and rain on Saturday, with showers possibly turning wintry in the high ground in the north. The highest winds are
