Storm Bert is the second storm of the season and caused widespread disruption across the region over the weekend. 

Hundreds of homes were left without electricity as power cuts hit Suffolk during the storm.

A number of events were cancelled over the weekend including Christmas lights switch-ons across the county due to health and safety fears during the storm. 

Some businesses decided to close during the strong winds. 

The Met Office has said that the winds are expected to die down this morning and more dry weather is forecast.
