Storm Isha is set to batter all parts of the UK with wind and rain, forecasters say. Winds of up to 80mph will swoop in later on Sunday, potentially causing power cuts and loss of mobile phone signal, while roads and bridges are likely to be shut and transport services could face delays and cancellations in some areas.

Nearly four inches of rain could fall over a few hours in some regions and cause localised flooding, with eight flood warnings already in place across England.

Scattered heavy showers are expected in the north west during the morning, then turning very windy through this afternoon with heavy rain developing in many areas, according to the Met Office. Try MEN Premium now for FREE...
