Chief fire officer confident in rescue teams
The Island's emergency response crews are better prepared than ever to deal with severe weather events, according to a senior firefighter.
Storms have caused a number of incidents over the last week, ranging from felled trees to road traffic accidents.
On Saturday, a man was rescued uninjured after his van was swept away in fast-moving water at Garey Ford in Lezayre.
It's triggered a reminder to be especially cautious near rivers during storms.
Chief Fire Officer Kevin Groom says the rescue teams proved their readiness:
