National Emergency Co-ordination Group's key pieces of advice
The key advice for this storm, it is an extreme storm at the very upper end of the Atlantic storms we experience, for those times that red-level warnings are in place - shelter at home, shelter in place, do not move out and particularly, do not travel on the roads during that period.
The other key piece of advice - make sure your mobile phone is charged and if you find yourself really difficult situation, dial 999.
Even if your phone is not showing a service, it may pick up a service from another operator, so that's very important for the next 24 hours.
