Geologists from the British Geological Survey have warned that the conditions forecast over the weekend have a potential to trigger landslides in the hardest-hit areas.
Western Scotland is forecast to see the strongest winds and rain, with an amber weather warning issued from Friday to Saturday morning.
Claire Dashwood, engineering geohazards geologist at the BGS, said: “Records show that landslides have been triggered in western Scotland by similar amounts of rainfall to that being forecast this week.
“Both natural and infrastructure slopes are likely to be affected with potential for disruption to roads and railway within the warning area, this could be particularly impactful in this area due to the presence of isolated communities and long diversion routes.”

Albert Toth
With gusts of up to 100mph forecast, Storm Amy is set to be one of the most forceful to hit the UK in some time.
Past named storms since 2015 have seen gusts reaching 80-90mph, the Met Office says.
The highest wind gust recorded in the UK in October is 124 mph recorded at Rhoose, South Glamorgan, on 28 October 1989.
The highest gust speed recorded in Scotland in October is 106 mph recorded at Salsburgh, Lanarkshire, on 18 October 1984.
However, both of these events occurred before the Met Office started naming storms in 2015.
The Met Office says “it is possible” that Scotland could see record-breaking October wind gusts over the weekend.
Experts share power cut tips

Albert Toth
Storm Amy is expected to cause damage to property this weekend, especially in parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Paul Collins, technical director of NICEIC, has shared the group’s expert tips to deal with power outages.
First, having a ‘storm essentials’ kit will go a long way. The worst conditions have not yet hit most of the UK, so it may be worth considering stocking up.
Mr Collins said: “A fully charged torch is a must during a power cut. Keep your phone battery for communication purposes and for updates from your electricity provider. If possible, store a torch on every floor of the house in an accessible place – one being next to your bed – plus some extra batteries (if required).”
He also advises that households alert their provider as soon as they experience a power outage, as it may not be aware of the issue. This can speed up the process of having power reconnected.

As Storm Amy batters the UK, it is useful to know how to stay safe in hazardous weather conditions.
Guidance from the Met Office advises what to do at every stage of the storm to ensure people stay safe and property undamaged.
During the storm
- Stay indoors as much as possible
- If you do go out, try not to walk or shelter close to buildings and trees
- Keep away from the sheltered side of boundary walls and fences - if these structures fail, they will collapse on this side
- Do not go outside to repair damage while the storm is in progress
- If possible, enter and leave your house through doors in the sheltered side, closing them behind you
- Open internal doors only as needed, and close them behind you
- Take care when driving on exposed routes such as bridges, or high open roads, delay your journey or find alternative routes if possible
- Slow down and be aware of side winds, particular care should be taken if you are towing or are a high sided vehicle
- Do not drive unless your journey is really necessary

We advise people to stay away from swollen rivers and coastal paths, and not to drive through flood water as just 30cm of flowing water is enough to move your car.

Albert Toth
The Met Office gave a fresh update Friday on Storm Amy as heavy wind and rain spread across the country.
Every region of the UK is now covered by a weather warning, with the meteorological body adding or extending the alerts on Friday morning.
There are now three amber warnings in place across Friday and Saturday, where a danger to live is posed. These are in western Northern Ireland and Scotland on Friday, and only northern Scotland on Saturday.
Meanwhile, there are eleven yellow warnings across the weekend, with every area covered at some point.
Met Office chief forecaster Neil Armstrong said: “Storm Amy will be an impactful autumn storm for many in Scotland and Northern Ireland, though impacts will also spread to northwest England and Wales, as well as a more widespread windy period for the rest of the UK.
“Within the Amber warning areas, damaging gusts of around 100 mph are possible for a time on Friday evening for parts of western Scotland, especially Skye, Tiree, Barra and western Lochaber. This could lead to significant disruption, and brings the risk of power cuts and damage to buildings and trees. Elsewhere, gusts of 60-80 mph are expected more widely in the Amber warning areas, and slightly lower figures for those covered by Yellow warnings.
“Rainfall is an additional hazard, in particular over western Scotland, where totals could exceed 30-50mm in 6-9 hours, increasing the risk of flooding for some. A number of warnings have been issued covering the rainfall risk for the coming days.”

“Hopefully these will only be precautionary, but we know from our experience that many people are not prepared or aware of guidance that will help them better withstand extreme weather events, like floods, in advance.”
“We have practical advice that can make a real difference – from securing loose items in your garden to checking windows and doors, and making an evacuation plan for your household, including pets.
“We also urge people to keep an eye on local weather reports and guidance from local authorities.”
