Storm Boelo has caused severe weather across the UK, resulting in the deaths of two men due to falling trees. A man in his 20s died in north London after a tree fell onto his car, while a 60-year-old man died in Dumfries and Galloway. Additionally, two women in Aberfeldy were hospitalised after being struck by a fallen tree. The storm has left over 90,000 properties without power as of Sunday evening, with repair efforts hindered by dangerous conditions.
The storm brought wind gusts up to 85mph and widespread flooding, particularly affecting towns along Scotland's Clyde coast. Infrastructure damage includes flooded businesses and damaged roads, such as the Skelmorlie to Largs route. Scottish government officials convened to assess the situation, warning that adverse weather may return. The Met Office issued amber and yellow wind warnings, advising the public to stay indoors and avoid sheltering near trees or buildings.
