Storm Angus, the first named storm of the season, has hit the south with gusts of up to 80mph.

The vigorous area of low pressure brought heavy rain to southern areas last night night and winds up to 80 miles and hour.

The met office has issued an amber - be aware - warning for Hampshire for this morning.

There are also three flood warnings in place.

They are at Lymington and Keyhaven, Rushington and Eling and Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight.

A Met Office statement said:  "Please be aware of the risk of difficult driving conditions due to localised surface water flooding and possible debris from trees.

"A vigorous area of low pressure, now named Storm Angus, will move northeast across southern and southeast England during Sunday morning.

"This will be accompanied by a period of heavy rain, starting in the west of the area during Saturday evening, and very strong winds. 20-30 mm and locally 40 mm of rain is expected within a 6-9 hour period.

"Conditions are expected to improve from the west during the morning and early afternoon.

"The storm will push north overnight with the worst of the weather set to hit southeast England on Sunday morning."

 Up to 1.6in (40mm) of rain is predicted in some areas, and Met Office forecaster Simon Partridge warned of localised flooding if drains become blocked with leaves blown off trees by the high winds.

But gusts of between 70 and 80mph in the worst hit areas are of greatest concern as the first storm threatens to bring down weak tree branches.

''It is the first storm of the season, coming quite late at this time in November,'' said Mr Partridge.

''This will be a bit of a shock to the system for most people in terms of wind and rainfall.

''Any weak branches are likely to come down in the first storm.''

But forecasters predicted the storm will move off quite quickly into the North Sea towards Europe, with conditions set to improve from around midday Sunday.
