Britain braced for storms
Parts of Britain are predicted to be affected by severe storms with winds of up to 70mph expected.
Parts of England, Northern Ireland and Wales are expected to be affected by the high winds for several days from Thursday morning.
The storms are then expected to be followed by a cold snap, which could last five days and snow to Scotland, northern England and parts of the Midlands next week.
At the weekend and into next week, a fall in temperatures is predicted, following an unseasonably mild start to the year.
Stephen Davenport, senior forecaster for MeteoGroup, warned that the worst weather was still to come.
Mr Davenport said that people needed to be careful tomorrow because the winds could be strong enough to cause damage.
He said: "Worst hit will be the coastlines in Kent and Sussex but the whole of the country will experience high winds."
