The Island is being praised for how it handled Storm Doris yesterday.
Strong winds and heavy rain battered the Isle of Man yesterday - the airport was forced to close and Ben-my-Chree sailings didn't go.
The emergency services, Department of Infrastructure and Manx Utilities Authority had to deal with fallen trees, downed power lines and road obstructions.
Inspector Gavin Callow says there was a lot of damage caused but no serious injuries were reported:
