Storm Darragh - Advice from Cheshire Police

Storm Darragh is going to impact the region starting from tonight and through into the weekend - particularly on Saturday.

Cheshire Police has released this advice:

All of the county is under at least a Yellow warning for high winds with some parts falling under an Amber warning.

Please make sure you've checked the forecasts for where you are and the relevant warnings:

If you have to travel, leave more time for your journey and drive to the conditions - high sided vehicles should be especially cautious on our more exposed roads/routes. If you encounter debris on the road please contact your council's highways department.

If you lose power, ring 105 to let your network operator (not supplier) know - you can find more information on that here:

Please only call 999 about the storm if there's a risk of harm or worse - we need our lines clear to handle emergencies.
