More than 80,000 homes are without power as killer Storm Arwen batters UK: 100mph gales and snow blizzards cause travel chaos with amber and yellow warnings still in place as driver dies after being hit by fallen tree
More than 80,000 homes in the UK have been left without electricity after the country was battered by Storm Arwen last night. Ferocious gales of nearly 100mph were recorded in Northumberland yesterday and one man in Northern Ireland was killed when his car was struck by a falling tree. While the Met Office's rare red weather warning expired early today, the forecaster said that amber and yellow warnings for wind remained in place, with the expectation of gusts of 70mph in many areas today and flooding along the North East coastline. Police urged people to travel only if absolutely necessary today after roads were closed by fallen debris in the worst-hit parts of Scotland. Coastguards even begged Storm Arwen sightseers this morning to stay away from the sea today and tomorrow, warning: 'No selfie is worth killing yourself for'.

Customers facing third night trapped at pub in Yorkshire Dales after heavy snow hit region
Customers are facing a third night trapped in the UK's highest pub due to heavy snowfall during Storm Arwen.
Around 60 pub-goers became stranded at the Tan Hill Inn in the Yorkshire Dales after going to watch an Oasis tribute band on Friday night.
Nicola Townsend, the pub's manager, told Sky News that around 50 guests will be staying for a third night due to the high levels of snow as well as fallen power lines blocking the roads after the storm.
Mountain rescue has helped to remove one person for medical treatment for an existing health condition while a few other people managed to leave in 4x4 vehicles on Saturday night, she added.
"But we're all sleeping down here again tonight. Nobody else is going anywhere now," Ms Townsend said. "We're just going to make sure everybody is safe."
The pub manager said the snow is up to nine feet deep in some areas and they have been advised not to drive anywhere, especially without a 4x4 vehicle.
Since Friday, the pub have held a pub quiz, played movies, treated their guests to a free buffet and served Sunday lunch with Ms Townsend adding that the pub has plenty of supplies to keep them going.
