Developing story first seen 2 hours ago
The Met Office forecasts more rain and strong winds across Britain after Storm Boelo caused deaths, flooding and widespread power cuts over the weekend. Storm Chloe could become the next named storm if conditions intensify enough to prompt an amber or red warning.
Rain is expected to move north-east across the UK on Monday, with gales in the west later, followed by a windy, wet Tuesday; the strongest winds in northern areas may arrive then, with gusts around 70mph possible. Boelo brought gusts of up to 85mph in Machrihanish, killed two people in separate incidents involving fallen trees and left 161,400 homes without power, while flooding affected areas including Glasgow and Largs.
