As fierce winds and heavy rain wreaked havoc on the night between Wednesday to Thursday, firefighters were called out more than 1,400 times.

More than 20 homes were damaged in the storms, hundreds of buildings were flooded, and gales knocked trees onto roads and railways.

Foul weather was also expected on Thursday.
