The UK is currently in the midst of the record-breaking storm, with gusts of 122mph recorded earlier today at The Needles, Isle of Wight.

"First one panel was ripped off, then another went too."How much more will this thing be destroyed?"He later added another video showing around six panels had come off adding: "This thing isn't slowing down."In another video shared to video, part of the membrane which covers the arena was seen falling into the Thames.It comes after a day of devastation across the UK, starting when the storm made landfall at around 5am in the south west of the country.The Met Office put out two rare red alerts for wind for both the south west and the south east, lasting into the afternoon.Roads across the country have been blocked by falling trees and debris, with commuters in parts of the north and Scotland waking up to a blanket of snow.Rail services across the country were cancelled, while flights have also been delayed or cancelled in airports across the UK.
