The storm's impact was felt most severely in Scotland and Northeast England, where emergency crews worked through the night to restore electricity to affected properties.

In the Lake District, a major rescue mission was launched to save three canoeists who became stranded on an island during the peak of the storm.

While weather warnings have now been lifted, authorities are advising the public to remain vigilant as they assess the damage to buildings and infrastructure.

The storm also disrupted Easter travel plans, with several flights and train services facing cancellations.
