- NADA FARHOUD

CAMPERS got a shock when Storm Lilian swept their tents off the ground at Leeds Festival.

Winds of up to 80mph battered parts of the UK yesterday causing power cuts, cancelling flights and destroying stages at the music event.

Organisers issued an urgent weather report, warning attendees to stay in their tents if they were on-site while urging others to delay arriving.

The main arena was shut until 2pm, while winds damaged the BBC Radio 1, Aux and Chevron stages, putting them out of action. Liam Gallagher was headlining last night.
