Wind creates eerie sweeping sand at Burnham-on-Sea

Eerie scenes of sand swirling across a beach in Somerset have been captured on video.

High winds of up to 40mph at Burnham-on-Sea's seafront caused sand to blow along the beach, creating this "impressive" effect on Sunday.

A Met Office spokesperson said: "It does look impressive and that is testament to the strong winds, but many local authorities will be used to seeing this."
