Storm Ciara and weather warnings - as it happened - BBC News
One man dies as a tree falls on his car and weather warnings remain in place after Storm Ciara.
"The problem really in the east of England is loss of power.

"UK Power Networks says yesterday, across the south east and east of England, 324,000 homes and businesses lost power during the peak of the storm.

"Ninety-one percent of those have since been reconnected.

"I am looking over a water meadow at the moment as staff in a cherry picker from UK Power Networks try to reconnect the village of Grundisburgh [in Suffolk], where about 120 properties are affected.

"At the peak of the storm in Suffolk, 20,000 people were left without power. That's now down to about 3,200 in Norfolk, about 3,500 homes (in the region) still without power.

"A number of schools in Suffolk have had to shut this morning.

"I visited an old peoples' home near Sudbury this morning, where they have been without power for about 24 hours.

"They had to bring residents into one room and keep them warm under blankets and keep them fed with takeaway food.

"So it's an ongoing project here to get people reconnected and they hope to have most people back on hopefully by this evening."
