The Met Office has issued a series of severe weather alerts, including rare Amber 'danger to life' warnings, affecting millions across the UK.

Storm Goretti, named by Météo-France, is the primary driver of the disruption, alongside an Arctic air mass that has already plunged temperatures to a record -12.5°C at Marham in Norfolk on Tuesday morning.
