Power Chaos in Scotland, NI, and Ireland After Storm Éowyn

stormweatherpower outagestransportationemergency

Widespread power outages continue in Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland, with some areas facing several days without electricity. Storm Éowyn brought hurricane-force winds, snow, and ice, damaging buildings and blocking roads. Over a million homes, farms, and businesses were left without power, and some may not have electricity restored for up to 10 days. Fallen trees and debris pose a danger on roads, and public transport is slowly resuming. Emergency contact information is provided for those affected.

On Sunday, a new storm, Herminia, is forecast to bring incessant rain, gales, and hill snow, but it will not be as powerful as Éowyn. The damaged infrastructure, however, increases the risk of further damage.
