Emergency services and power companies are on high alert as storms, strong winds, and floods threaten the UK from south-west England to Scotland.
The Environment Agency has issued 11 severe flood warnings, which imply a “danger to life”, for areas of the midlands, south-west England and Wales, whilst a tidal surge is expected in Scotland.
400 lower level flood alerts have also been issued for other areas across the country.
The Met Office has issued yellow severe weather warnings for strong winds and rain for western Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and parts of the south-west.
