The Met Office has issued a weather warning for more very strong winds over the next week.

If you were out and about yesterday, you will know how horrible the weather was, and a number of trees came down as a result.

There is now a yellow weather warning in place covering London over the next week.

A huge number of trains and roads were affected this weekend due to falling trees and debris.

The warning covers tomorrow until Friday evening, so you are being advised to take extra care when travelling.

A Met Office spokesman said: "There will probably some bus and train services affected, with some journeys taking longer and delays for high-sided vehicles on exposed routes and bridges likely."

There may also be some short-term power cuts.
