Harrogate district braced for Storm Corrie
The Harrogate district is braced for another wild night of weather as Storm Corrie approaches.
A Met Office yellow weather warning is in place until midday tomorrow, with gusts of up to 45 mph predicted.
Winds are expected to strengthen at about 8pm and peak overnight from 2am to 3am.
The district is still recovering from yesterday's Storm Malik, which uprooted numerous trees and led to venues and events being cancelled. Some areas, including Hampsthwaite and Birstwith, also experienced power cuts.
The Met Office has warned further power cuts are likely, along with travel problems and damage to trees and buildings.
