We hear how Storm Imogen is affecting you.

:00:13.:00:15.

The football fan with his own special room on match day.

:00:16.:00:29.

Heavy rain and powerful winds have been battering the South West coast

:00:30.:00:33.

Storm Imogen's whipped up huge waves - some almost 14 metres high -

:00:34.:00:38.

that have been crashing onto roads across Wales and Cornwall.

:00:39.:00:41.

More than 12,000 homes don't have any power and some trains,

:00:42.:00:43.

planes and ferries have been cancelled.

:00:44.:00:45.

We asked how the storms have been affecting you.

:00:46.:01:00.

It is so windy! In the car this morning, we had one -- all the

:01:01.:01:13.

others. This morning, on the way to school, I went flying into the mud

:01:14.:01:16.

with my grandma. Last night, there was it big bang and when we woke up

:01:17.:01:24.

this morning, we realised a tile had fallen off the roof and we realised

:01:25.:01:28.

it was completely flooded so dad had to fix the car!

:01:29.:01:32.

The BBC's Duncan Kennedy is getting buffeted by strong winds

:01:33.:01:35.

It's actually even hard to stand up here, such are the force

:01:36.:01:40.

We reckon they're coming in at about 95 mph gusts,

:01:41.:01:44.

barrelling across the Western approaches, through the Solent here,

:01:45.:01:46.

past the Isle of Wight just over by the shoulder.

:01:47.:01:48.

We've got lots of Cross-Channel ferry services

:01:49.:01:50.

Also, services to the Isle of Wight have been cancelled

:01:51.:01:53.

Next, to a young Sunderland fan who took on his team and won.

:01:54.:02:00.

Nathan couldn't watch his team play because he has autism.

:02:01.:02:03.

But Jenny finds out how that's all changed.

:02:04.:02:08.

Nathan and his brothers are football crazy.

:02:09.:02:10.

It's a medical condition that affects the way you see

:02:11.:02:15.

It can make you extremely sensitive to sound, touch,

:02:16.:02:19.

So somewhere very busy and loud like a football match can

:02:20.:02:26.

Watching football from the stands with the rest of the crowd just

:02:27.:02:52.

wasn't an option so, until now, Nathan has never been able to go

:02:53.:02:55.

You can hear the noise, it's pretty noisy.

:02:56.:02:58.

But it's not just that, it's the lights, you've got bright

:02:59.:03:00.

stadium lights, big cheers, lots of crowds everywhere.

:03:01.:03:02.

For a child like Nathan, it can be really difficult.

:03:03.:03:05.

Nathan's family wanted a safe, calm space for their sons and others

:03:06.:03:08.

They campaigned for a special room for people with autism

:03:09.:03:11.

It's safe, away from the crowds, it has special relaxing bubble

:03:12.:03:16.

lights and because it's soundproof, when other fans cheer

:03:17.:03:18.

But it's close enough to get the atmosphere of the match.

:03:19.:03:24.

Beforehand, trying to bring Nathan, he couldn't cope with the atmosphere

:03:25.:03:28.

so I had to take him home, but now, he's got his own room,

:03:29.:03:31.

he can come, he feels safe and secure.

:03:32.:03:33.

It's the right environment for him so he can come and enjoy

:03:34.:03:36.

You can see the enjoyment on his face.

:03:37.:03:39.

Sunderland are the first in the Premiership to create

:03:40.:03:41.

a special room for people with autism.

:03:42.:03:43.

Now Nathan's family are meeting other clubs in the league to see

:03:44.:03:46.

if they can create similar spaces for other footie fans like him.

:03:47.:03:55.

They parked their cars on a frozen lake at the annual Winter Fest event

:04:00.:04:03.

:04:08.:04:09.

Chucking snowballs is fun, but check out this international
