Work is now underway to address the damage caused across the region by Storm Eunice.

The storm has taken its toll on many trees at Cambridgeshire nature reserves run by the Wildlife Trust.

Some paths have had to be closed to allow the Trust to clear the debris and deal with issues, although none of the reserves had been forced to close.

High winds also caused a giant tree to land on a dog walker in south-west Cambridgeshire, although the man and dog miraculously escaped serious injury.

Hinchingbrooke County Park was closed on Friday, February 18 by Huntingdonshire District Council due to Storm Eunice and severe weather warnings issued by the Met Office.

The park reopened on Saturday morning after an early morning inspection with the Huntingdon Parkrun able to go ahead with the team helping to clear debris and an abundance of twigs and branches from the path.

Further aftermath of the storm included a delivery van that had overturned into a field on Forty Foot Bank.

The Met Office and Environment Agency produced an update on the Government website that the flood risk in Huntingdon for the next five days, from February 22, is "very low".

The water levels for the River Great Ouse is however high at Offord, Houghton and St Ives but remains normal elsewhere.

The progress of the storm

The Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Essex on February 20 to last until February 21, due to Storm Franklin.

As a result, Greater Anglia, which runs trains from Cambridgeshire, announced a reduced service for February 21.

Network Rail imposed a 50mph speed limit on its trains to try to keep the railway running safely.

Greater Anglia managing director Jamie Burles said: “We really would urge people to only travel if your journey is absolutely essential, as we saw on Friday that journeys can be severely delayed if trees block the tracks and overhead wires get tangled or obstructed."

The latest information according to the Met Office website is there are currently no weather warnings for Cambridgeshire for the rest of this week.

However, The Met Office report that heavy snow and gusty winds are expected to hit across the north and west of England this week.
