Nine people have been killed and schedule of flights, trains and ferries across Western Europe disrupted due to powerful storm Eunice, which pummeled Britain with record-breaking winds. Buildings were damaged in the Netherlands too due to the storm.

London is under its first ever "red" weather warning, meaning there was "danger to life". The highest weather alerts have been declared across southern England, South Wales and the Netherlands.

The naming of the storm is done by the UK Met Office, which started the system in 2015. The forecasters in Ireland and the Netherlands later joined in. The storms are named to make people aware of the potential impacts of severe weather.
