Storm Goretti impacted large swathes of the UK last night (Thursday, January 8) and into the early morning (Friday, January 9), but when will it officially end?
Plenty of amber and yellow warnings were issued by the Met Office for a mixture of snow, wind and rain depending on where you were in the UK.
There was even a red warning issued for Cornwall and the Isle of Scilly for winds.
Almost 71,500 properties lost power across England and Wales during the height of Storm Goretti, according to the National Grid's map of outages.
Many train companies have also urged commuters not to travel today as there is significant disruption to some services, according to the National Rail website.
Alongside that, the Isles of Scilly received the most rainfall in the UK yesterday with 36.6mm and was hit by winds of 99mph, according to the Met Office.
Snow was heavy in many places, particularly in Derbyshire, with warnings being in place for 30cm falling in some parts of the Midlands.
When will Storm Goretti end?
Storm Goretti is now on its way out, but will stick around until around midday in some parts of the UK.
The worst of it is over for the South West of England, but a weather warning for snow and ice for large parts of Scotland and the North East of England will last until 12pm.
An amber warning for snow in the Midlands and large swathes of Wales ended at 9am but a yellow warning covering a large portion of central England and Wales will stick around until midday.
Another yellow weather warning for rain is in place for Norfolk and areas of eastern England, which will last from 6pm to 9pm today.
The Met Office website added: "Storm Goretti’s influence will wane on Friday evening as the system moves to the east of England.
"There will be a short-lived interlude of calmer weather for many on Saturday with rain showers easing, cloud for those in the east, and sunny spells possible elsewhere.
"However, by Sunday further unsettled weather will move in from the west. As milder Atlantic air tries to displace the cold air over the UK it brings a risk of some further widespread snowfall and strong winds in the north of the UK and rain further south.
"There is still some uncertainty in the detail for the second part of the weekend so it’s important to stay up to date with the forecast."
