Storm Darragh Triggers Red Weather Warning in UK

As Storm Darragh approaches, three million residents in parts of Wales and south-west England have been urged to stay indoors due to expected winds of up to 90 mph. The Met Office issued its highest-level red weather warning, which is active from 3 am to 11 am on Saturday, signaling potentially life-threatening conditions. The government activated its largest-ever emergency alert system, advising people to prepare for potential power cuts and avoid travel. The storm has already led to the cancellation of Christmas events and significant disruptions in travel, including flight delays and rail service reductions. Despite the alerts, some individuals reported not receiving the emergency notifications. Authorities emphasize the importance of safety as the storm is anticipated to ease later in the morning on Saturday.
