A "danger to life" warning has been issued as turbulent weather is set to bring winds of up to 80mph to Kent.

The Met Office has revised its advice to say Storm Ciara, covering the entire UK, is now likely to last all day Sunday.

It is expected to bring travel disruption and could cause power cuts.

The Met Office said: "Injuries and danger to life could occur from large waves and beach material being thrown onto seafronts, coastal roads, and properties.

"Some damage to buildings, such as tiles blown from roofs, could happen.

"Road, rail, air and ferry services may be affected, with longer journey times and cancellations possible.

"Some roads and bridges may close.

"Power cuts may occur, with the potential to affect other services, such as mobile phone coverage."

The warning is in place from midnight on Sunday to 11.59pm.

Highways England said it would be working closely with the Met Office to monitor the weather conditions.

"As a result of the forecast, we have issued a Severe Weather Alert for gales," said a spokesman.

"Road users are advised to take extra care when travelling, to allow plenty of extra time to complete your journey, and to consider whether your journey is absolutely necessary before setting out, by first checking the very latest forecast and road conditions."
