⚠️Large cliff fall overnight at Seatown Beach ⚠️ Please keep well away from the cliff edge and follow signage and guidance from @DorsetCouncilUK who are the trail managers for this section.

A massive landslide on the Jurassic Coast east of Seatown Beach took place overnight! It's the same location as the one in April 2021, which was described as 4,000 tonnes and the biggest landslide in the area for 60 years. This definitely breaks that record. #rockfall #dorset

⛈️ Bands of heavy and squally showers are moving east across Wales and central and southern England, bringing sudden downpours and possible hail, thunder and lightning It's also very windy, especially in coastal areas, so expect some locally tricky driving conditions 🚗
