Storm Doris swept through the UK on 23 February, causing major disruptions across Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland, with winds reaching up to 94mph. The Met Office has declared that Storm Doris is now a "weather bomb" after an intense drop in pressure and issued an amber weather warning as the strong winds continued to cause major travel disruptions, road closures and has left thousands of homes without electricity.

The Port of Liverpool has been forced to close and a woman has been killed in Wolverhampton in an incident believed to have been caused by the storm. Scotland has been hit by heavy snow and gale force winds which have caused major incidents on its roads. In Northern Ireland around 2,700 homes and businesses are without power.
