THE WASHINGTON POST: The powerful storm is expected to hit western France and northern Spain hardest just days after Ciarán blasted the region
Storm Ciarán proved to be the worst since 1987 for parts of western Europe, with its 120 mph gusts, tennis ball-sized hail, towering waves and heavy rains. The storm killed at least 12 people, according to the Associated Press, and caused widespread damage, knocking out power to 1.2 million residents in France and disrupting hundreds of flights.
Now, a new storm — named Domingos by Spain’s meteorological agency — is on the way, and could exacerbate ongoing efforts to clean up from its predecessor.
The worst of Domingos is expected to hit northern Spain and western France along the Bay of Biscay, where gusts in excess of 60 mph are possible in addition to heavy rain.
To the north, yellow warnings for rain have been drawn across southern England by the U.K. Met Office. » | Matthew Capucci | Friday, November 3, 2023
