風暴Eowyn肆虐蘇格蘭與北愛爾蘭,造成廣泛破壞
風暴Eowyn在蘇格蘭和北愛爾蘭造成了廣泛的破壞,帶來了破紀錄的強風、停電和交通混亂。英國氣象局發布了罕見的紅色天氣警告,表示由於飛散的碎片和結構損壞,存在「生命危險」。某些地區的風速達到每小時100英里,愛爾蘭高威郡記錄到破紀錄的每小時114英里的陣風。
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「像個鬼城」,因為居民聽從警告留在家中。蘇格蘭歐文的49歲男子因被掉落的屋頂瓦片擊中而死亡,這是風暴造成的第一起死亡事件。北愛爾蘭警方報告了超過2000起與天氣有關的事件,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了重大損壞,包括蘇格蘭丹尼的一棟建築牆壁倒塌,以及柴郡一家奶酪工廠的屋頂部分坍塌,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著琥珀色和黃色天氣警告,公眾被敦促避免不必要的旅行。這場風暴預計將是幾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。
