Gale force winds and high tides have been battering Devon overnight - with warnings of further extreme weather to come.
Part of Dawlish sea wall has collapsed and the main road through the town is closed.
Strong winds also brought down about 80 trees across the county and a wall in Exeter's Fore Street.
A severe flood warning has been issued for the coast from Exmouth to Lyme Regis and people are being urged to stay well clear of sea front areas during this morning's high tides.
