The Met Office has issued yellow and amber wind warnings for the East of England, as Storm Doris sweeps the country this week.
Gusts are expected to reach speeds of 70 miles per hour in places like Cambridgeshire, Essex and Norfolk today (February 23), with winds of 80 miles per hour possible near the coast and on hills.
While the strongest winds look to be short-lived, the Met Office says damage to structures, interruptions to power supplies and widespread disruption to travel networks is likely.
