There is disruption on a number of routes this morning, as Storm Jocelyn hits Herefordshire.
Winds affecting Herefordshire seem far stronger than those that we saw in the area with Storm Isha, with a number of trees down on routes across the county.
60+mph winds have been recorded in the county, with temperatures also unseasonably mild, with temperatures still at 15c at 9pm last night at Hereford Credenhill.
