It started off with everyone mocking the name ‘Doris’ but after a night of horrific sleep and trying to walk to work in gale force winds, everyone is realising the true power of the storm.
As 56,000 people nationwide are left without power and several flights to the UK have been cancelled, Storm Doris has blocked roads with fallen trees (and even trampolines).
Here’s some of the best pictures online this morning that show the aftermath of the storm:
Watch out for the trampolines…
