Storm Gerrit: Onboard helicopter flying through London turbulence

The National Police Air Service has shared a video of what it was like flying through Storm Gerrit's heavy winds, in a helicopter.

The footage, which was captured from inside the cockpit, shows the chopper rocking side to side, after being hit by winds of up to 80mph (128km/h).

Posting on X, formerly known as Twitter, the NPAS said "If you think it's windy down there, spare a thought for us up here in our flying washing machine".

The footage was filmed near Lea Valley reservoirs, North London.
