Here we are 90 mins later and the classic "swirl" of a rapid deepening depression is starting to show.

This system will develop quite quickly now and be more visible as a proper looking storm over the ocean in the next few hours.

#stormdudley sheared the blades off this wind turbine at Hesket Newmarket in Cumbria. Bits are embedded in the field – this is an exposed spot and it’s still very windy today but people living near say it came down during an enormous gust around 2am ⁦@ITVborder⁩ pic.twitter.com/iDoOZfkoKY

👷⚡️ Our team at Kilwinning have shared this photo of the considerable damage done to one of our overhead line structures, caused by a fallen tree.

We're now assessing what needs to be done to repair it and reopen the railway for @ScotRail services. More soon. pic.twitter.com/oegeIbg3pw
