RESIDENTS across the Isle of Wight have been hit hard by today's adverse weather.
Homes and streets in Binstead have been flooded, with CP reader Chester George sending video of the carnage caused by the excessive downpour.
The Met Office had earlier launched an amber weather warning, with further inclement conditions forecast until the early hours, although tomorrow (Monday) afternoon looks brighter.
Meanwhile, Scottish and Southern Electric Networks (SSEN) have apologised after residents of Sandown lost power this evening.
They are aiming to restore power by 8pm.
A spokesperson for the company said: "We’re sorry for the loss of supply. We currently have a fault affecting the areas listed.
Our engineers are on site working hard to get the power back on as quickly as they can."
For more information call SSEN on 105 or message them on Twitter (@ssencommunity) and quote reference 'HP7541'
Postcodes affected by the powercut are: PO36 0HD; PO36 0HH and PO36 0JP.
