Storm Babet live: ‘danger to life’ warnings issued and trains cancelled as wind and rain batter UK – as it happened

Warnings from both the Met Office and the Environment Agency come as storm continues to batter the UK

In North Wales, a sheepdog named Patsy rescued three ewes which had been cut off by floodwater on Friday afternoon.

Farmer Llyr Derwydd, 44, went to check on his sheep in Flintshire when he saw the sheep stranded on this little spot on the field".

So we thought we'd better get them off and make sure they're safe.

I just thought, I'll see if the dog will go'. I gave her the command and she swam across.
