A yellow weather warning from the Met Office - meaning severe weather is possible over the next few days and could affect you - remains in place for Cornwall and the South West this afternoon.

Forecasters warn: “Very strong winds are forecast to affect most western and some central parts of the UK during Monday.

“These strong winds are forecast in association with the northward track of ex-Ophelia across or near to the west of the British Isles.

“Southerly winds are most likely to gust between 55mph and 65mph across much of the warning area with the potential for gusts of 80mph in coastal areas, particularly on the eastern side of Northern Ireland.”
