A number of roads have been closed and some trains cancelled, while flights have been disrupted at Newcastle Airport.

Heavy snow and rain has led to travel disruption across parts of Yorkshire and warnings of potential flooding as Storm Bert sweeps across the region. Four flood alerts are in place in West Yorkshire along sections of the River Aire and River Calder, with a further alert in place for the North Sea coast at Bridlington in East Yorkshire.

Tens of thousands of homes, farms and businesses in Ireland suffered power outages due to Storm Bert on Saturday, while some rail lines and roads were closed in Britain due to what forecasters called a "multi-hazard event".
