People in the South East have been warned to expect windy conditions, one week after Storm Bert

Strong winds will affect south-east England this weekend, as the UK is hit by Storm Darragh.

Kent, Surrey, East Sussex and West Sussex all received a yellow weather warning from the Met Office from Friday 15:00 GMT until Sunday 06:00 GMT.

The warning means delays on road, air, rail and sea are "likely" according to the weather service.

The Met Office has also warned debris from the southerly winds could cause damage to roads and houses.

Flood alerts and weather warnings were issues across the South East last month as a result of Storm Bert.
