Video footage captures the moment a lorry is blown over in high winds on a motorway as Storm Eunice hit Wales.

Two lorries were blown over on the M4 westbound between J37 at Pyle and J38 at Groes, south Wales.

The roof of a house in Newport was also blown off, buildings damaged, trees uprooted and there has been localised flooding after 92mph (148km/h) gusts were recorded off the Welsh coast.

A very rare red warning for wind expired at 12:00 GMT, but as we've been reporting, an amber warning remains in place across the whole of Wales until 21:00.

A family in East Sussex have lost their car to Storm Eunice - and it was all captured on their home CCTV.

The pictures show a large tree on the pavement outside their driveway in Seaford, near Eastbourne, toppling on to the car.

The tree smashed the windshield and the bonnet. No-one was hurt.

Bethany Monro, whose dad David owns the car, says she was "shocked and couldn’t believe it".

A team of tree surgeons had to be brought in to cut up the tree and remove it.

The family have been in touch with their insurance company.

An ambulance rushing a baby girl to hospital in Aberdeenshire has been rescued by members of the public after becoming stuck in heavy snow.

Ten-month-old Jessica Louise Macleod, who spent the first six months of her life in hospital with a congenital heart defect, became ill today after developing breathing difficulties.

At the time, heavy snow from Storm Eunice was causing massive disruption to roads in the area and the ambulance became stuck in snow as it raced to hospital in Aberdeen.

Jessica Louise's mum, Melissa, 32, was amazed at how the public jumped immediately to help.

"There were vehicles not moving out of the way for the ambulance, so a lorry driver got out his vehicle and started walking down the road in the snow to tell people to move," she says.

"The ambulance had to drive on the untreated part of the road, where it became stuck. Literally within seconds there were people pushing the ambulance to free it."

Wales' First Minister Mark Drakeford has urged people to "take care" and "check on vulnerable neighbours" as high winds continue.

Work is being carried out to make roads clear and safe in the area of north London where a woman was killed when a tree fell on a car.

The woman, aged in her 30s, was a passenger and died at the scene this afternoon on Muswell Hill Road.

Councilor Peray Ahmet, leader of Haringey council, says she is "deeply saddened" by the news and offers her condolences to her family.

“Our teams are working tirelessly to clear fallen trees and debris and to secure any structures that pose a risk to the public," she adds.

"I urge all residents to follow official advice and be alert to the dangers that come with the extreme weather that continues to affect the borough.”

Transport for Wales (TfW) services will resume on Saturday after all trains across the country were suspended on Friday due to the storm.

But customers are being urged to check the latest information because damage will not be fully known until early in the morning, the company says.

Services will therefore restart later and a small minority will be replaced by road transport.

TfW said Saturday tickets will also be accepted on Sunday and Monday, with no need for customers to change or amend dates.

We've got details now of a third death in the UK during Storm Eunice.

A man in his 20s was killed in Alton, Hampshire, when a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter pick-up hit a fallen tree in Old Odiham Road just before midday.

One minute Holly Price and her five-year-old daughter Olivia were having a "normal pyjamas day", the next they both evacuated the house after the roof caved in.

Holly, from Newport, south Wales, says: "My daughter was upstairs and we heard an almighty bang and a lot of noise.

"I just dropped to the ground, then ran upstairs to grab my daughter because she was screaming."

The chimney breast had fallen through and left "dust and debris everywhere".

"I grabbed my daughter, and any clothes that I could, and took her outside.

"The sound will never, ever leave me – it was just heart-breaking to hear my daughter screaming."

"I had no idea what was happening until I opened the door. It’s lucky we’re alive," she adds.

The pair will be staying at a family member's house tonight, then see if they can get emergency shelter.

We've had some more detail on a man, in his 50s, who has died after debris struck the windscreen of the vehicle he was travelling in.

Merseyside Police say they were called just after 14:10 GMT to Switch Island, Dunnings Bridge Road in Netherton.

The man who was driving the vehicle was not injured but the passenger died at the scene.

Officers say the man's next of kin have been informed and inquiries into the incident are ongoing.

We have a bit more information now on a woman, aged in her 30s, who has been killed this afternoon when a car was hit by a falling tree in north London.

Police were called shortly after 16:00 GMT to Muswell Hill Road near the junction with South Close, in Haringey borough.

The London Ambulance Service and London Fire Brigade also attended but the woman, who was a passenger in the car, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Officers say they believe they know her identity and her family has been informed.

The driver of the car, a man aged in his 30s, has been taken to hospital. His condition is not believed to be life-threatening.

Road closures are in place at the location.

Mayor of London Sadiq Khan says: "My thoughts and prayers are with the families of the woman who tragically lost her life and the man who was seriously injured in Highgate this afternoon."

He also pays tribute to the emergency services "who have been working tirelessly to keep us safe" and urges all Londoners to remain cautious and avoid taking risks as the storm passes.

While there are undoubtedly some important influences from our changing climate, it is not possible to say that climate change has “caused” this extreme event.

There has been considerable debate here among UK researchers about whether we are seeing more frequent and more intense storms as a result of climate change, but two studies after the extremely stormy winter of 2013-14 concluded there was no clear evidence for a link between climate change and increased storminess.

The UK Met Office also said in their State of the Climate , externalreport in 2020: “There are no compelling trends in maximum gust speeds recorded by the UK wind network in the last five decades.”

But warming can influence a storm like Eunice in other ways.

For example, a warmer atmosphere can hold considerably more moisture, which increases the intensity of downpours and hence the risk of flooding.

Climate change has also pushed up sea levels around the globe which makes it easier for storms to whip up large sea surges.

On the central question of climate change and the frequency of storms like Eunice, scientists are clear that more research is needed.

A 50-year-old man has been killed after debris struck the windscreen of a vehicle in Netherton, Merseyside, during the storm this afternoon.

Police say another man who was driving the vehicle was not injured.

A woman in her 30s has died after a tree fell on a car in Haringey, north London, on Friday afternoon during Storm Eunice, the Met Police confirm.

Storm Eunice has been causing travel chaos, with hundreds of flights cancelled, rail lines blocked and road bridges closed.

A rare "do not travel" alert was issued earlier across Britain's railways and more than 430 flights due to take off or land at UK airports have been cancelled.

Seven train operators suspended all services this afternoon - c2c, Chiltern Railways, Great Western Railway, Greater Anglia, South Western Railway, Southeastern and Transport for Wales.

Network Rail has closed all routes in Kent, while every line in south-east London has been blocked by trees.

Transport for Wales said its train services would resume tomorrow - but disruption to rail travel is likely to continue early on across the UK.

Jake Kelly, Network Rail's group director, says:

Will there be calm after the storm in time for the weekend's clear-up?

Saturday will see a mostly dry and bright start tomorrow, with sunny spells in the south and east but rain will spread across Northern Ireland and parts of England and Wales, with snow on hills. Sunny spells remain for Scotland.

While winds won't be as strong as today, there are gusts forecast for south and south-west England, Herefordshire and large parts of Wales which the Met Office says could hamper clear-up operations.

Sunday looks likely to be a windy and unsettled day with further spells of rain followed by showers, some of which will be wintry in the north of the UK, especially across the hills.

The bandstand at the De La Warr Pavilion on Bexhill-on-Sea seafront in East Sussex has blown away in the high winds.

Launched just over 20 years ago, the iconic piece of architecture was torn apart by Storm Eunice.

The Pavilion itself - an arts centre in a modernist building dating back to 1935 - has been closed all day.

Labour's spokesman for the environment has said the government’s response to Storm Eunice stands in "stark contrast" to its response when storms hit the north of England in November - when, he said, “the government were nowhere to be seen".

Shadow Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Jim McMahon said the government was hopefully beginning to “learn the lessons” from Storm Arwen, which saw a million homes lose power.

Earlier, Environment Secretary George Eustice said that while 200,000 homes were currently without power, teams were working hard to get people reconnected.

He said it had been easier to repair pylons this time because the effects of the storm were more dispersed across the country, compared to Arwen.
