風暴伊歐肆虐蘇格蘭與北愛爾蘭，造成廣泛破壞

2025-01-24

風暴伊歐因在蘇格蘭和北愛爾蘭造成廣泛破壞，帶來破紀錄的強風、停電和交通混亂。英國氣象局發布了罕見的紅色天氣警告，指出由於飛散的碎片和結構損壞，存在「生命危險」。部分地區的風速高達每小時100英里，愛爾蘭高威郡更錄得破紀錄的每小時114英里陣風。

在蘇格蘭，風暴導致學校、鐵路服務和機場關閉，愛丁堡被形容為「像鬼城一樣」，居民聽從警告留在家中。蘇格蘭歐文的49歲男子被墜落的屋頂瓦片擊中身亡，成為風暴造成的第一宗死亡個案。北愛爾蘭警方報告了超過2000宗與天氣有關的事件，道路被倒下的樹木和碎片堵塞。

英國和愛爾蘭超過一百萬家庭和企業停電，能源供應商警告恢復供電可能需要數天時間。風暴還對基礎設施造成重大損壞，包括蘇格蘭丹尼的一棟建築牆壁倒塌，以及柴郡一家芝士工廠的屋頂部分損毀，壓毀了八輛汽車。

英國氣象局警告，雖然風暴最嚴重的部分已經過去，但進一步的風雨可能會阻礙恢復工作。蘇格蘭和北愛爾蘭部分地區仍然維持琥珀色和黃色天氣警告，公眾被敦促避免不必要的出行。這場風暴預計將是數十年來最嚴重的風暴之一，其影響被比作1998年的節禮日風暴。
