ireland and ireland, northern ireland and scotland have seen the strongest wind in ten to 20 years. gusts of up to 90 mph were recorded in northumberland and yellow rain warnings remain in place in many areas. we'll have the latest from the bbc weather centre and correspondence across the united kingdom. but i wanted to start by showing you some shocking footage that demonstrates the real power of the storm. it's from lincolnshire. look at this. a driver had a narrow escape after a roof was blown off a building. if you see it again, you will see the car coming through on that road. seconds later, the roof falls on the road, narrowly missing what would have been his car. security cameras in the town of belton captured the incident as the village was battered by the storm. the road has had to be closed while repairs are carried out. i think that gives you a sense ofjust how

powerful the storm has been across the country. as i mentioned, a speed of 99 mph reported, with one gust in northumberland. 0ne of 99 mph reported, with one gust in northumberland. one of the big problems has been on the trains, because debris has fallen onto the train tracks, and in particular that has been an issue in scotland. sean dilley has been at euston station all morning, monitoring the situation underjoins us now, live from euston station. what is the latest, as we speak, in terms of trains across the country?- trains across the country? well, the are trains across the country? well, they are getting _ trains across the country? well, they are getting better - trains across the country? well, they are getting better and - trains across the country? -ii they are getting better and better with each passing minute. you can probably see behind me, euston is pretty much getting to its normal level of busyness. trains are now running to scotland, that has been the case since about 8.19 this morning, the first service went up to edinburgh. before that, they were terminating in preston, which is in

lancashire. there are trains that are disrupted across the whole country. the advice from national rail is that you should check your journey before you travel. 0ne rail is that you should check your journey before you travel. one of the things that is going to continue to impact right here for the capital, and for people travelling down from scotland and in between, is because trains are not yet necessarily running out of scotland, as a result of debris on the track and so forth, or they are starting after rush hour. there was delays will impact the movement of trains. most of the severe weather, of course, landing north of the border in scotland. that is where the majority, 50 of the 85 flood warnings that are in place, have been enacted. up in scotland, authorities say that the priority is to work with network rail, who are inspecting every bit of track, inspecting every bit of track, inspecting the overhead wires to

make sure there is no issue there. as you pointed out earlier, trampolines on the tracks in kent, so all sorts of danger working there. speed restrictions in place, 50 mph in some areas where trains are running, so there is the earlier site for the drivers to stop the train if there is anything on their way. train if there is anything on their wa . , ., , , train if there is anything on their wa . , . , , ., ~ way. there is that issue, i talked about the treason _ way. there is that issue, i talked about the treason trampolines i way. there is that issue, i talked | about the treason trampolines on way. there is that issue, i talked - about the treason trampolines on the line, the issue for the train companies is that they have to go out and inspect the light, but then get the debris removed before they can run any services? you get the debris removed before they can run any services?— can run any services? you are quite riaht, can run any services? you are quite right. that — can run any services? you are quite right. that is _ can run any services? you are quite right, that is the _ can run any services? you are quite right, that is the issue _ can run any services? you are quite right, that is the issue for - can run any services? you are quite right, that is the issue for the - right, that is the issue for the train companies, as a pedant, it is network rail during the physical inspections. the reason that is relevant is because you have that kind of interagency work. these are fairly well rehearsed practices for these companies. we have been saying all morning that you have to spare a

thought for the engineers who are out there checking every inch of track, repairing those overhead lines. we all like to grumble about trains not running on time, it is kind of a british pastime on occasions, that i think we are all a little bit guilty. today is pretty much your example of there being an issue where safety genuinely is the concern, and the impact has been huge. they are getting on with clearing up. there has been work ongoing across england, wales and scotland to remove debris from the track all along here. you can see behind me that people are getting on and cracking on with theirjourneys. the thing is, your train to be cancelled, it could be delayed. the advice is that you do need to check beforehand. we should also briefly touch on police control rooms across the whole of the united kingdom and northern ireland. we have been inundated with calls about falling trees on roads. when people can't necessarily rely on the trains in

these environments, they take to the roads, they are busier. some roads are closed, for instance the m9 in scotland. people are phoning police control room saying there is a tree in the road. as far as england will be concerned, that would be the highways agency, transport scotland north of the border. there are agencies that are working to work this out. but they are dealing with quite a logistical nightmare here. to be fair, fairly chilled passengers behind me, with one or two might go i rate ones in the mix. it is notjust trains that have been affected, flights affected by the storm? , ., , ., affected, flights affected by the storm? , ., ., , storm? yes, there has had to be temporary _ storm? yes, there has had to be temporary air— storm? yes, there has had to be temporary air traffic _ storm? yes, there has had to be temporary air traffic control - temporary air traffic control measures put in place. we heard of many stories, for instance there was a bbc wales colleague who was due to land into bristol, but the conditions were so bad, the landing had to be aborted. they went up to

edinburgh, where the conditions, of course they were horrific as well. but she described the scene, in aviation there is an expression that pilots will know, happy landings. how rough or smooth is that landing? as the aircraft touched down, she described the passengers clapping, and she said she and a friend burst into tears. she thought about her husband, she thought about her children. it might all sound pretty stark and pretty dramatic, but this is the fear that people have heart tailwinds have been making the turbulence, as she put it, something they have not experienced before. if you are travelling to airports, check very carefully those road conditions. check very carefully if your flights are running. conditions. check very carefully if yourflights are running. check conditions. check very carefully if your flights are running. check your train journeys. your flights are running. check your trainjourneys. if your flights are running. check your train journeys. if you your flights are running. check your trainjourneys. if you don't your flights are running. check your train journeys. if you don't need to travel, it might be sensible not to do so. �* �* , _, , ., , do so. the bbc news helicopter has not to do so. the bbc news helicopter has got to gatwick _ do so. the bbc news helicopter has got to gatwick airport, _ do so. the bbc news helicopter has got to gatwick airport, so _ do so. the bbc news helicopter has got to gatwick airport, so we - do so. the bbc news helicopter has got to gatwick airport, so we can i got to gatwick airport, so we can show you the live scene. i did just

see a british airways plane take off on the field that i could see. you were talking about how they were clapping when landing, i suppose it showsjust how rare clapping when landing, i suppose it shows just how rare an event this really is, the fact that we are not used to that sort of turbulence on a plane from a storm?— used to that sort of turbulence on a plane from a storm? yes, it is quite a eur0pean — plane from a storm? yes, it is quite a european thing. _ plane from a storm? yes, it is quite a european thing. when _ plane from a storm? yes, it is quite a european thing. when you - plane from a storm? yes, it is quite a european thing. when you travel i a european thing. when you travel around the world, particularly if you fly into eastern european countries, but others around europe, people will clap and it is part of tradition. i rememberthe people will clap and it is part of tradition. i remember the first time i experienced it, i thought, tradition. i remember the first time i experienced it, ithought, my goodness, is that really the measure of a really good result, that we have landed and survived? but in this case, it sounds like it was much more of an instinctive thing. absolutely compliments to the bbc news chopper pilot, because even in the south—east, where conditions are a lot better, down in sussex, that would be gatwick airport, the wind is still pretty strong here. a few

minutes ago, it was 8 degrees in central london, the wind chill is quite strong, the wind is blowing reasonably strong. it's not necessarily the disruption we have seen so far that presents challenges itself, its the flood warnings in place, the potentialfor more debris on the line, and trains are not in a position where they ordinarily would be. to say it is like dealing with a very large train set is what is going on behind me.- very large train set is what is going on behind me. thank you for brinuain going on behind me. thank you for bringing us — going on behind me. thank you for bringing us the _ going on behind me. thank you for bringing us the latest _ going on behind me. thank you for bringing us the latest from - going on behind me. thank you forj bringing us the latest from euston. let's go to aidan mcgivern, a met office at all address who can give us the lowdown on why this has happened and what is likely to happen. how unusual is this level of gusts, 99 mph, that we've had overnight across in parts of the uk? it is fairly unusual. you don't usually get a gustov that magnitude

every season. the last time i can think that we saw such widespread impact across the uk was storm eunice, almost two years ago. we don't usually get this kind of widespread impact on such severe impact on a nationwide scale every winter. it normally happens every few winters. 50 winter. it normally happens every few winters-_ winter. it normally happens every few winters. , , ., , , few winters. so why is it happening now? well, — few winters. so why is it happening now? well. we _ few winters. so why is it happening now? well, we had _ few winters. so why is it happening now? well, we had a _ few winters. so why is it happening now? well, we had a very - few winters. so why is it happening now? well, we had a very stormy l now? well, we had a very stormy season. now? well, we had a very stormy season- we _ now? well, we had a very stormy season. we are _ now? well, we had a very stormy season. we are up _ now? well, we had a very stormy season. we are up to _ now? well, we had a very stormy season. we are up to i _ now? well, we had a very stormy season. we are up to i already, l now? well, we had a very stormy i season. we are up to i already, that is the earliest we have seen the letter i in our storm naming system since we started naming systems in 20 15. one of since we started naming systems in 2015. one of the reasons is el nino, which can have ramifications on weather patterns throughout the globe. it is often associated with a more unsettled winter season in the uk. that's one potential cause. for this specific storm we saw an

extraordinary temperature contrast across north america just last week, and the temperature contrast, with very cold air in places across the interior, clashing with warm air from the south, that fuelled a jet stream, and where we get a powerful jet stream roaring across the atlantic, it can pick up and deepen areas of low pressure, that is what we have seen. is areas of low pressure, that is what we have seen-— we have seen. is climate change havin: we have seen. is climate change having an _ we have seen. is climate change having an impact _ we have seen. is climate change having an impact on _ we have seen. is climate change having an impact on the - we have seen. is climate change having an impact on the fact - we have seen. is climate change| having an impact on the fact that we have seen. is climate change - having an impact on the fact that we have had so many of these named storms already this season? climate chan . e storms already this season? climate chance has storms already this season? climate change has an _ storms already this season? climate change has an impact _ storms already this season? climate change has an impact in _ storms already this season? climate change has an impact in terms - storms already this season? climate change has an impact in terms of. change has an impact in terms of when it rains, the rain is heavier, you get more flooding as a result. but there's not much evidence in terms of the severity of wind speed. certainly looking at observations going back through the last few decades, there's not a clear correlation between climate change and wind speed during the winter or with the severity of storms. that's partly because i was storm eunice each winter varies a lot. for example, last winter we didn't have a single name storm. we had a couple

in the summer, but not a single name storm last winter. we had quite a few of the winter before. you get high variability from winter to winter. it's difficult to say that climate change is causing more storms. what we are seeing in the winter is more flooding as a result of climate change.— of climate change. looking at the current situation, _ of climate change. looking at the current situation, what _ of climate change. looking at the current situation, what is - of climate change. looking at the current situation, what is the - of climate change. looking at the| current situation, what is the next few days likely to be, weather—wise? are we passed the worst of it? indie are we passed the worst of it? we are ast are we passed the worst of it? - are past the worst of storm isha, it will be a plus three day which will not help the clear up operation. then another low comes for tomorrow and that is something we have a close eye on. although it's going to be a notch down on storm isha, with wind gusts of 60—70 mph, perhaps a touch more in exposed parts of scotland and northern ireland, it is not going to help things at all. so, it could lead to greater impact than you would normally get if this just came in isolation during the winter.

0k, aidan, from the met office, thank you very much forjoining us. ijust want to thank you very much forjoining us. i just want to take you to some live pictures, we havejust had i just want to take you to some live pictures, we have just had to feed come up. this is the shetland islands. we been reporting that scotland has been one of the worst hit areas in terms of storm isha. you can see, throughout the last hour, we have been looking at different pictures from across the country. we had those from brighton and also cornwall, where the waves were quite calm. there, you can see a lot more fierce looking ways in the shetland islands. more remote, so we are likely to get bigger waves there. the live scene from the shetland islands, and scotland is one of the worst hit. the central belt of 70—80 mph overnight, we have been talking about the railway being hit, the fact that scotrail had not been able to run any services, and all of the engineers are going to have to check the lines before they

can actually do anything and allow any trains. we can also take you to get work. this is gatwick, where an aircraft is just landing. because of the storms, a lot of planes are in the storms, a lot of planes are in the wrong places, along with passengers, because certain flight had to be diverted. i was reading the story on the bbc live page, from bbc wales presenterjenniferjones, he was caught up in this. her flight from geneva to bristol airport was diverted to edinburgh. she said, we were told on the runway in geneva that it was very stormy in the uk and there would be a crosswind in bristol, so we had been forewarned it would be quite bumpy. when we started the descent into bristol it was extremely turbulent on the plane was extremely turbulent on the plane was lurching from side to side. it was lurching from side to side. it was pretty harrowing. i'd never seen that kind of turbulence, so they have to abort the landing in bristol and then go to edinburgh. she said that was also quite harrowing, but when they landed, they burst into

applause and there were tears and other bits as well. so, quite a dramatic scene that we had been reporting across the country, in terms of the weather situation and the fact that flights are disrupted. so, we will keep you updated on all of the different things that are going on. don't forget that the live page is up and running as well. you can find the very latest on the bbc news website or app. they will bring you the latest throughout the day on bbc news. i'm just going to turn to another bit of news away from the storm, the indian prime minister narendra modi has inaugurated a hindu temple on a contested site in the northern city of ayodhya.

the new temple delivers on a long—standing promise made by his party, the inauguration marks the unofficial start of his election campaign. tens of thousands of devo teas have converged on ayodhya for the ceremony. nearly 90 weather—related deaths have been recorded in the us. tens of thousands of people without power, with icy conditions forecast to continue until the middle of the week. oregon remains under a state of emergency. checks are to be carried out on a second model of the boeing 737 aircraft, following the blow out of an unused door on nus 737 earlier this month. the us federal aviation administration urged airlines to inspect older

models of the 737, which use the same door design. that is an update on some other stories. let's return to the storm, and storm isha that has been across the whole of the country, with winds of up to 99 mph. earlier i spoke to sarah keith—lucas and asked her how strong some of these gusts from storm isha had been. , , ., , ., been. this is the ninth named storm of this season. _ been. this is the ninth named storm of this season, and _ been. this is the ninth named storm of this season, and certainly - been. this is the ninth named storm of this season, and certainly the - of this season, and certainly the strongest. in terms of the pressure, the low pressure, it was down at 947 millibars. so, stronger than the earlier storms we have seen. we have been talking about the gusts of wind. in northumberland is where we saw this strongest gust, 99 mph. as you can see, widely across the country, we had the gusts of wind above 80 mph. so, it is really unusual across england, wales and

northern ireland to see gusts of wind quite so strong around such a large area. it's notjust the strength of the wind, we have had heavy rain as well. around 80 flood warnings are still in force. you mentioned _ warnings are still in force. you mentioned the _ warnings are still in force. you mentioned the gusts, - warnings are still in force. you mentioned the gusts, how unusual is it that it is across a large part of the country, the fact it was coming across such a large area? it’s the country, the fact it was coming across such a large area?— across such a large area? it's very unusual. across such a large area? it's very unusual- it's _ across such a large area? it's very unusual. it's been _ across such a large area? it's very unusual. it's been a _ across such a large area? it's very unusual. it's been a particularly i unusual. it's been a particularly large storm in terms of the area affected. if we look at the satellite image, the storm is affecting the whole of the uk. although the area of low pressure has been just to the north, although the area of low pressure has beenjust to the north, and it is clearing towards the norwegian sea, you can see the proximity of the isobars, from northern scotland all the way down to the isle of wight, where we had gusts of 86 mph. very unusualfor a storm wight, where we had gusts of 86 mph. very unusual for a storm like this to result in amber warnings. they are right across the uk. i think we are right across the uk. i think we are going to be seeing the storm gradually easing away. the weather

bearin have from earlier this morning, and bear in mind these numbers will change as we work out through the day, around another 30,000 in the north of england, particularly cumbria, but also in scotland on the north of scotland. most of the country, unusually, was covered by an amber wind warning. north scotland had a red warning, which is very unusual. but it goes to underline the severity of the wind that we have to encounter last night. i that we have to encounter last niuht. ., , that we have to encounter last ni. ht, ., , ., that we have to encounter last ni. ht. ., , ., ., that we have to encounter last niuht. ., ., ., ., night. i was reading at some of the cruise in the _ night. i was reading at some of the cruise in the north _ night. i was reading at some of the cruise in the north west _ night. i was reading at some of the cruise in the north west attitude i cruise in the north west attitude stop because it wasn't safe for them? this stop because it wasn't safe for them? �* , ., , stop because it wasn't safe for them? �* , ., ., 4' stop because it wasn't safe for them? a ., ~ stop because it wasn't safe for them? �* , ., ~ ., stop because it wasn't safe for them? a ., ~ ., them? as well as working as hard as we can to get _ them? as well as working as hard as we can to get customers _ them? as well as working as hard as we can to get customers back - them? as well as working as hard as we can to get customers back on - we can to get customers back on suopiy, we can to get customers back on supply, we have to look after our own team. they are there 356 days per year, own team. they are there 356 days peryear, but own team. they are there 356 days per year, but we can't let them get out unless it is safe to do so. we
