Lielbritānijā spēcīgu nokrišņu rezultātā izziņotas vismaz 400 plūdu trauksmes. Vairākās vietās uzsākta cilvēku evakuācija un traucēta satiksme. Sākušies zemes nogruvumi. Bet salu ziemeļu daļā sasnigusi bieza sniega kārta. Arī prognozes nav iepriecinošas, jo brīvdienās tiek solīts vel vairāk nokrišņu.
