HUNDREDS of homes across Worcestershire are without power following a night of high winds.

Central Networks said about 250 homes scattered across the county are without power, but said engineers are working to get them back on.

Spokesman Jonathan Smith said: "Worcestershire is pretty good to be honest. There is no more than about 250 homes without power.

"It's relatively normal for this time of year and nothing to write home about.

"There is no main area affected and those that are are quite small."
