Flights have been cancelled and trains suspended as Storm Jocelyn hits the UK – and forecasters say the worst weather is still to come.

The severe weather caused major travel disruption and the storm is expected to be at its worst in the early hours of Wednesday – with a possibility that Met Office warnings are extended through the rush hour, the Met Office said.

A search is taking place, south Wales, after a person was reported to be in the sea just before 6pm on Tuesday.
