Storm Eunice has hit South Yorkshire.

It's the second lot of bad weather we've had this week, with an amber warning for wind from the Met Office covering Doncaster and parts of Sheffield this morning, with yellow alerts elsewhere in the region.

We are being urged to avoided wooded areas in South Yorkshire if we can, due to potential falling trees or debris.

We are also being told to avoid travelling if we can, with train companies saying they could have to cancel or reduce services at short notice.

So far flights to and from Doncaster Sheffield Airport are normal.

Councils across South Yorkshire are keeping an eye on what's happening. Storm Dudley saw falling trees across the region earlier in the week.

We're also hearing Stagecoach has had to divert services due a tree falling into the road.
