After hammering Ireland, Storm Agnes has hit the UK with gale force winds, flooding, and power disruptions.
On Wednesday evening, the first designated storm of the season produced 79mph gusts in Capel Curig, a village in Wales.
Wind speeds of 68mph were recorded in Aberdaron, Wales, 58mph in Glenanne, Northern Ireland, and 54mph in Camborne, Cornwall.
Agnes prompted a succession of Met Office yellow weather warnings for wind and rain across the UK, with destructive winds and large stormy seas anticipated.
Flooding, transport inconvenience, and power outages have occurred in the United Kingdom.
Around 135 properties on the Isles of Scilly, in the south-west of England, experienced power outages for just under four hours earlier on Wednesday, according to National Grid.
But the Met Office said the main impact on the UK has been strong winds.
Meteorologist Dan Stroud told the PA news agency that gusts are starting to ease in England and Wales.
He said: “It’s an improving picture across England and Wales but there’s still some very strong gusts actually further north across Northern Ireland and Scotland.
Storm Agnes produced alerts such as a wind warning until 7 a.m. Thursday, which was later rescinded.
The warning covered Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales, as well as the south-west of England, the West Midlands, and the majority of England’s north.
Rain was also forecast for much of Scotland until 3 a.m. on Thursday.
