Do you mean Katia?
Katia is no longer a Hurricane. What's left of it is due to hit NW Scotland and perhaps NI on Monday. This mornings weather models have weakened this system significantly; tomorrow you will experience nothing you haven't experience before...tomorrow we are expecting something you'd expect to get in the UK in November/December.
Your Mum may of got 'a Hurricane is hitting us' from the media. Don't listen to them..the media love to create hype over nothing.
EDIT:
From the MET OFFICE:
The remains of Hurricane Katia will move eastwards across northern Scotland during Monday, bringing a spell of very windy weather to the UK and also heavy rain to western Scotland. The strongest winds are expected to affect parts of Northern Ireland during the morning, before moving east across central and southern Scotland and into northeast England by evening. However, areas further south will not be immune, with the potential for strong gusts, particularly to the east of high ground.
The public should be prepared for the risk of disruption to transport and of the possibility of damage to trees and structure
Tomorrow gusts of 70mph, localised flooding and tansport disruption is likely; especially in exposed areas.
Nothing to really worry about!
