What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Storm Austen caused the suspension of several ferry services, including Red Funnel, Red Jet, Hovertravel, and one Wightlink service. Wightlink resumed its Lymington-Yarmouth service earlier than expected as winds began to ease. For the Portsmouth to Fishbourne route, Wightlink expected the car ferry to return at 6 pm from Portsmouth and 7 pm from Fishbourne.
