Wind speeds could reach 60mph in Suffolk this weekend as Storm Dennis is likely to bring widespread disruption.
Across the UK, Met Office warnings for rain and wind have been issued, with some places facing gusts of up to 80mph and between 120-140mm of rainfall.
In Suffolk, a yellow warning for wind is in place, which means some disruption to travel is likely and there could be some short-term loss of power, but there is no warning for rain.
Dan Holley, a forecaster with Weatherquest, said gusts could reach 60mph at the coast this afternoon, but elsewhere in the county expect speeds of 50/55mph.
Environment Agency workers are making repairs to Felixtowe Ferry beach ahead of the storm picking up later today.

Mr Holley said: "Although the winds aren't as strong as they were last weekend they are still pretty strong and the winds last weekend will have weakened trees anyway.
"Trees blocking roads could be an issue."

As tomorrow goes on, it will still be blustery, but the wind won't be as strong - expect speeds of 40-50mph. It should also be brighter.
There will be some rain too, but only 10-15mm at most, Mr Holley said.
He said major flooding was unlikely, with East Anglia facing the least impact nationally, but there could be some in rural areas.
Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service sent an appliance to Chadburn Road, Long Melford, near Sudbury, just before midnight last night due to reports of flooding.
Temperatures will reman mild.
