A powerful winter storm battered parts of the UK and France on Monday, causing flooding and travel problems. The storm developed over the weekend from an intense area of low pressure off the western coast of France. It followed through the English Channel on Monday, bringing heavy rain to southern Britain and hurricane force winds to northern France.

French Aviation officials ordered the closure of three airports in Paris on Monday, when wind gusts reached 140 kph overnight. It is the second storm to hit France in less than a month. On the 24th of January winds of up to 190 kph blew the south-west of the country leaving four people dead and thousands without power.

The storm also brought a mixture of heavy rain, sleet and snow to much of southern Britain, along with strong winds. Most of the snow fell across the Midlands and the south-west, with 7 cm of snow falling in Nottingham through the 24 hours of Monday.

The storm also brought heavy rain across much of the south; the Isles of Scilly receiving 62.2 mm of rain. As of 11.00 a.m. on Tuesday the Environment Agency has 90 flood warnings across England and Wales, with one severe warning for the Rivers Chelmer and Can at Chelmsford.

Forecasters at the Met Office expect the weather to become more settled across the UK over the coming days, remaining cold with some sunshine and a few chilly showers.
