What’s going on in the world: natural disasters on our planet Earth. Latest news on weather events and natural disasters. A real natural disaster unfolded in the British Isles. Storm Babet came from the North Sea and brought heavy rainfall, hurricanes and floods to the UK and Ireland. Coastal areas of Scotland have been hit the hardest. Waterside-Perth received 164 mm (6.6 inches) of rain in 24 hours, while Argyll and Beauty received 238 mm (9.5 inches) of rain. Wind gusts reached 112 km/h (70 mph). Angus Area Council warned people there was a “risk to life” and urged them to leave their homes. For example, residents of 335 houses in Brechin and a further 87 houses in Tannadice and Finavon were advised to evacuate due to the risk of severe flooding. There are already casualties in the region - in the Glen Esk valley, a woman was carried away by a rapid flow of water. Thousands of homes were left without power overnight. There are 79 flood warnings in force across the UK. Gusts in excess of 90 km/h (56 mph) are possible on the east coast, where large waves will add to gale force winds and other hazards.
