Storm Dave batters the UK

Storm Dave has brought a chaotic start to the Easter weekend, with wind gusts reaching up to 75mph and significant snowfall in parts of Scotland.

The Met Office has issued amber warnings for wind, leading to flight cancellations at Heathrow and Dublin airports and widespread rail delays.

High-sided vehicles have been banned from major passes, and coastal areas remain on alert for flying debris and power cuts.

Forecasters expect conditions to improve by Monday, though travelers are advised to check for ongoing disruptions.
