Disruption expected as Storm Kathleen hits Cornwall
Gales of up to 70mph are expected on Saturday
Major disruption is expected across Cornwall as Storm Kathleen hits on Saturday.
A yellow weather warning is in force between 8am and 10pm, with winds of up to 70mph expected.
The Met Office are warning of damage to buildings, including tiles being blown off of roofs, and power cuts.
Disruption to road, rail, air and ferry services is also expected, with all sailings on the St Mawes Ferry cancelled due to "adverse weather and sea conditions."
Meteorologist Aidan McGivern says he expects the coasts to be hardest hit.
"Avoiding the coasts and avoiding those dangerous waves is key with this storm," he said.
He added the timing of the storm during the Easter Holidays influenced the decision to make it a named storm.
"A lot of people on the roads, caravans now out and about, so that's why we've got these warnings in place."
