Kinda gross how little mainstream news in the UK has reported on the sheer extent of the damage caused by Storm Goretti in #Cornwall last week.

Local BBC and ITV news have been reporting but there's been little national from what I can see including traditional press.

And there are still homes and care facilities without electric and water in parts of the duchy. Plus, the power cuts have taken out a lot of mobile masts too.

As of this morning just over 500 properties still didn't have power, most affected by water outages now have water again.

But a lot of people still don't have a working phone connection (mobile or landline) or internet access.

Edit update: Properties changed from 400 to 500.
