Here is a selection of photos showing the intense weather caused by Storm Babet today (October 20).

Heavy rainfall, winds of up to 60mph and flood warnings have been causing disruptions across the Yorkshire coast.

Scarborough Spa has had to cancel two events due to Spa Road closing. The cliff lift is also out of action because of the high winds.
