THREE weather warnings remain in place in Cornwall as extreme conditions tighten their grip on the region.
Last night the county was battered by strong winds, heavy rain and even lightning and the Met Office weather warnings for snow, ice and wind remain in place.
The snow and ice warning will remain valid until this afternoon, with the wind and heavy rain reaching into tomorrow.
A Met Office spokesman said: "Another Atlantic low pressure system is expected to deepen significantly as it tracks towards the UK. The strongest winds will initially be across England and Wales during the second half of Wednesday into early Thursday before moderating.
"This may also lead to large waves on some coasts of Wales and southern England. A separate area of very strong winds is likely to affect more northern areas of the UK through Thursday, particularly affecting Northern Ireland and the Central Belt of Scotland.
"As well as the very strong winds, a band of squally rain is likely to sweep eastwards across many parts through the period."
