Sailings cancelled as storm force winds hit Isle of Man

Storm force winds have led to more sailing cancellations today.

The crossing at 8.45 this morning and the return sailing at 2.15pm have both been called off.

Winds of severe gale force 9 and occasionally storm 10 are expected throughout today.

There's also a warning that this evening's sailings may be disrupted or cancelled as well.
