Fallen trees, precarious scaffolding and a collapsed chimney kept fire crews across the capital busy throughout Easter Monday (March 28) morning.

Safety advice during windy weather

An LFB spokesperson said: "Firefighters are always on hand should any buildings, hoardings or scaffolding be left in a precarious position and posing a risk to life because of high winds.

"Our 999 control officers have worked tirelessly to deal with hundreds of calls and get fire crews there as quickly as possible.

"To help stay safe during windy weather people should always clear gardens, balconies and window sills of anything that could be blown away.

"They should also take extra care if they venture outside and be careful using candles in the case of a power cut."
