More than 70 schools will be closed today as Storm Ciarán hits Suffolk. 

The county is braced for yet more torrential downpours and "potentially damaging winds" just weeks after Storm Babet caused significant disruption. 

Suffolk is likely to be hit by winds of up to 60mph in inland areas, with a yellow weather warning in place from 9pm on Wednesday until 6pm on Thursday.
