Last week, Storms Eunice and Franklin brought strong winds, heavy rain and snow to parts of the region.

Clean-up is still under way which may be made more difficult now with more strong winds on the way.

The windy weather has not yet been classed as a storm - but the next named storm will be Storm Gladys.

Disruption to rail and road services could occur as well as power cuts in some places.
