Storm Eleanor LIVE – latest UK weather forecast, news and updates after Met Office issues ‘danger of life’ warning
BRITS face travel misery this morning as Storm Eleanor hit with “hurricane force” 100mph winds bringing devastating flooding and uprooting trees.
Thousands of homes have been left without power and buildings have been badly damaged in severe winds as forecasters warned of a “danger to life” from flying debris.
Cars have been stranded in flooded roads across the UK after rivers burst their banks and coastal areas were hit by massive tidal surges as Eleanor carried heavy rain, hail and dramatic thunder and lightning.
A yellow warning has been issued for Northern Ireland, England, Wales and the southern fringes of Scotland lasting into tonight as the Met Office warned of public transport disruption, closed bridges, power cuts, phone outages and freak waves.
Elsewhere a number of roads — including parts of major motorways — were closed due to fallen trees and overturned lorries.
