In pictures: Storm Eunice's sea surges, fallen trees, flying sheds
- Published
One of the worst storms to hit Wales in a generation has caused power cuts, forced schools to close and blown over large trees and lorries.
Around the coast, large sea surges have been seen in places such as Porthcawl, Aberystwyth and Holyhead.
Here are some pictures showing the impact of Storm Eunice, which brought a rare red weather warning.

Waves battered Porthcawl harbour as Storm Eunice hits at high tide

Terry Branton from Langland, Swansea, saw one of the large trees in his garden fall: "Within two or three minutes I could just see the tree moving progressively over until it went crunch onto the front lawn".

In Aberystwyth large waves crashed onto the seafront

Two lorries were blown over on the M4 in Margam

Holly Price and her five-year-old daughter Olivia were "lucky to be alive" after having to evacuate their house in Newport after the roof caved in

Penarth Esplanade was another spot with waves sending spray onto onlookers

Walkers at Caswell Bay, Gower, said while the winds were high, damage was not as bad as previous storms. "It's definitely been worse here over the past 20s. Roof is still on!" said Sean Dwyer, pictured with wife Ruth

There's been flooding in Conwy: this is just outside Ysgol Aberconwy

A first for Wales as no trains are running all day and no rail replacements services are being offered

This fallen tree is at the Plough and Harrow in Murton, Swansea. Landlord Nicholas Jones, 40, said: "There were a couple of cars on this side of tree. It missed it by an inch. It has landed on our tile roof, but we can't see if there's any damage yet".
