Caption: Met Office Issues Fresh Wind Warning After Deadly Storms. Storms Austen and Boelo brought severe weather to the UK over the weekend, causing widespread flooding, power cuts and transport disruption. Two men died after being struck by falling trees: a 60-year-old man in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, and a man in his 20s in north London, according to police reports. Wind gusts reached 84 mph in parts of Scotland, while heavy rainfall caused flooding in several areas, particularly in the north of the country. The Energy Networks Association reported that around 90,000 customers remained without electricity on Sunday evening, following outages affecting hundreds of thousands of properties. Severe weather caused widespread disruption to road, rail, ferry and air services, with fallen trees, damaged roads and flooding affecting transport networks, particularly in Scotland. The Met Office has warned of further unsettled conditions, issuing a yellow wind warning for Tuesday across Scotland, northern England and parts of Northern Ireland. Forecasters expect strong winds and heavy rain to return as another area of low pressure approaches. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
