More than 250 homes across Yorkshire have lost power according to the Northern Powergrid.

The powercut has been caused by an unexpected problem with the cables or equipment that serve the areas, according to the live map.

The following postcodes have been affected by power cuts in the region:

S66 8HQ: less than 10

DN4 0AX: less than 10

LS11: 100

HX3: 50

LS22 7FT: less than 10

HG5: 90

The power is due to be restored across Leeds by later this evening.

However, restoration times have not been updated for other postcodes across Yorkshire.

Northern Powergrid said: "Our team are working hard to restore your power as quickly as possible."
