At least 4 more deaths as 2nd major storm hits north Europe
LONDON (AP) — The second major storm in three days has smashed through northern Europe, killing at least four people as high winds felled trees, cancelled train services and ripped sections off the roof of London’s O2 Arena.
The U.K. weather service said Friday a gust of 122 mph, thought to be the strongest ever measured in Britain, was recorded on the Isle of Wight as Storm Eunice swept across southern England.
The weather system, known as Storm Zeynep in Germany, is now pushing into the European mainland, prompting high wind warnings in Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark and Germany.
