Storm Darragh wreaked havoc across the United Kingdom on Saturday, unleashing gusts of up to 93mph, prompting authorities to urge millions to stay indoors.
The deadly storm left tens of thousands in the dark as the country faced power outages as well as travel disruptions with train services suspended.
These power cuts are “likely” across England until 6 pm Sunday, as forecasters predict more weather disruption from the storm.
Additionally, the country’s Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for wind affecting all 55 cities in England, with the entire nation of Wales also under the alert.
Meanwhile, Storm Darragh also created some harrowing landings for planes arriving at airports.
Energy Networks Association said 259,000 customers across England, Scotland, and Wales were without power on Saturday evening.
Photos from across England showed numerous trees toppled and fences blown over as strong gusts swept the country.
A man was killed in Preston when a tree fell across the A59 highway Saturday morning, smashing into his van, according to Lancashire Police.
Furthermore, the Met Office on Sunday warned that households must take care to prepare for the storm.
