Met Office issues severe weather warnings for Wales, southern England and Midlands as Atlantic storm moves north-east
The UK faces a day of horrendous weather, with winds of up to 65mph battering coasts and torrential rain threatening flooding.
Severe weather warnings have been issued for Wales, south-west England, the Midlands, London and the south-east and eastern parts of the country.
The unseasonable weather has already seen a number of trees brought down, including one which crushed a car near Tavistock, Devon, on Thursday afternoon.
Crews from Devon and Somerset fire and rescue service used cutting gear to remove the roof of the vehicle and release a woman, who was taken to hospital.
A fallen tree also caught fire after it brought down power lines across the River Axe at Forde Abbey in Chard, Somerset, on Thursday night.
