Britain is being battered by winds of up to 110mph that sound like "a bomb going off", with the potential for three inches of rainfall and 35ft waves, as Storm Ciarán wreaks havoc.
A major incident was declared late on Wednesday night (November 1), with a red 'risk to life' warning in place in the Channel Islands. Two amber warnings and multiple yellow warnings are also in place across the UK.
Some Brits, mainly in Jersey, had to be evacuated from their homes as the high winds cause structural damage, with jarring photos of people's roofs strewn across roads going viral on social media.
One Jersey couple told how they heard a noise like a “bomb going off” as their roof came crashing down during 104mph winds on the island.
A red wind warning - the highest level - was issued by Jersey Met.
There are 54 flood warnings in place across England, Scotland and Wales to boot. The storm will move to the far south and southeast of England later in the day. A further 134 alerts are in place for possible flooding.
Most of the flood warnings issued by the Environment Agency where flooding is expected are along the south coast, where a major incident has been declared in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
And there'll be further rain through the day, turning heavy at times as people batten down the hatches after last night.
The storm is set to be Britain’s strongest November storm since 1954, according to BBC weatherman Simon King.
British Airways has already grounded 30 domestic and European flights, with passengers being offered options such as travelling on a different service, or receiving a full refund. It's not the only airline to face cancellations, as Dutch airline KLM has scrapped all flights to and from the Netherlands until the end of the day.
Meanwhile, easyJet and Jet2 have issued warnings of potential delays and disruptions for passengers.
DFDS Ferries has cancelled all sailings between the UK and France until Friday morning, while Condor Ferries stopped sailings to and from Jersey until Saturday.
Meanwhile, Bonfire Night could be in jeopardy as Storm Debi is due to hit the South on Saturday.
