Warning of falling trees, riptides and power cuts as Storm Antoni lashes UK
According to the Met Office, Storm Antoni will be"potentially disruptive" as it moves from west to east - and it is likely some roads and bridges will need to close.
Few parts of the UK will escape downpours, cloud and cold conditions - with low pressure persisting following the sixth-wettest July in history. Some outdoor events planned for this weekend have been cancelled, with Dorset jazz festival Stompin' on the Quomps postponed for the first time in its 30-year history.
Revellers gathered on the wet streets cloaked in ponchos as performers waltzed through the streets despite the heavy rain and winds.
