Brace for Jocelyn

Transport and floods chaos as wild storm lashes UK

- PAUL BYRNE

STORM Jocelyn is expected to bring more severe disruption today after 80mph winds caused travel chaos in parts of the UK last night.

Flooding is expected in northern Britain, with heavy rain forecast in west Scotland, northwest England, the Yorkshire Dales and northwest Wales.

Train companies Avanti West Coast, TransPennine Express and ScotRail all warned of further cancellations.

The RAC's Alice Simpson said: "With so much heavy rainfall and debris on the roads, driving conditions will be very challenging, especially across northern parts of the country where the weather is at its worst.
