Ferry services between the Channel Islands and the UK have been cancelled following Storm Katie.

The high-speed Condor Liberations ferry will not sail between Poole, Guernsey and Jersey on Monday or Tuesday.

Condor Rapide services between the islands and St Malo have been rescheduled.

Flights between the Channel Islands and London Gatwick were cancelled earlier, but are due to fly later this morning and this afternoon.

Winds of 74mph were recorded at the harbour by Jersey Met, while gusts reached 70mph in Guernsey overnight.

Roads have been closed in Jersey due to fallen trees, including Rue des Canons in St Helier.

Jersey Police has warned people not to drive as the wind conditions remain dangerous in Jersey.
