Hazardous adverse weather conditions are being experienced in Cumbria, as Storm Arwen continues to bring high-winds, rain and snow fall.

Cumbria Police are urging the public to remain vigilant, and to only undertake vital travel as roads and streets are made dangerous by falling trees and damage to electrical pylons and telephone lines.

Thousands of homes are currently experiencing power outages due to damage to powerlines.  Electricity North West are working to bring power back to people's homes.

Cumbria Police report road closures, speed restrictions and urge for driving with caution.

The high winds have brought a number of trees down on roads and paths.

Confirmed reports of road disruption (due to the road being blocked), include:


  • A685 Grayrigg Village
  • A591 Hollins Lane, Burnside
  • Birthwaite Road, Windermere
  • A6 Selside
  • A592 Storrs Hall Hotel
  • A593 Ambleside
  • A593 Vicarage Road
  • A953 Coniston Skelwith Bridge
  • A685 Appleby Road, Kendal
  • B5282 Sandside Park Road
  • A684 Garsdale House, Sedbergh
