At least 45 people died as the weekends' storm past over Spain, Portugal and France.

The storm, called Xynthia by the French meteorological authorities, is expected to hit Germany and Poland on Sunday evening. Gusts of up to 95mph were reported in the Bay of Biscay.

Southern counties of England and East Anglia escaped the strongest of the winds that battered Iberia and France. Heavy rain in southern and eastern England did however raise the flooding risk on already saturated ground. 23mm of rain fell on Guernsey while the Isle of Wight had 21mm. The Environment Agency say heavy rain, on ground which is already soaked, is raising river levels, and high tides forecast later next week could cause coastal flooding.

As Xynthia pushed east into the North Sea, it left behind a calmer evening. With temperatures dropping and the wind falling away, fog will be the weather headache for commuters in the morning. Widespread fog will form across Wales and central England before the rainfall can dissipate into rivers.

Daniel Corbett explains why fog will develop in the wake of the storm.
