Storm Eunice flood warning for Severn Estuary and three flood alerts for Bristol region

Flood warnings are in place for coastal regions ahead of Storm Eunice's arrival - including one covering the Severn Estuary at Severn Beach near Bristol.

The storm has already caused disruption in much of the country and she's not even made her way to land yet. A 'red' Met Office weather warning for wind has prompted precautionary announcements of closures to bridges, bus cancellations, school closures and the closure of popular Bristol attractions.

Storm Eunice is expected to bring severe gale force winds across the Bristol Channel early on Friday (February 18), coinciding with low spring tides, according to information on the Gov.uk website. Experts are expecting this to cause very large and powerful waves along the coast.
