CUMBRIA was battered by Storm Isha with some shocking scenes across the county, from rail disruptions to trampolines on roofs - we managed to capture much in pictures.
On Sunday, January 21 Cumbria declared itself on standby for a major incident following an amber weather warning coming into effect for the entire county and the impacts of this storm are still being felt with high winds still being felt across the county yesterday, January 22.
As such, agencies are still working together to support any residents, communities and businesses affected by the weather including dealing with power outages, damage to our roads, fallen trees and flood warnings.
Storm Isha has led to:
- Winds of over 80mph at Shap - with many areas in Cumbria getting winds of 70 mph
- Road and rail disruption
- Power outages
- Disruption to roads and closures of some routes
