As Storm Éowyn hits the country on Friday, all 76 cities in the UK could face power cuts affecting other services, such as mobile phone coverage, the Met Office said

Met Office deputy chief meteorologist Mike Silverstone said: “The strongest gusts are likely to be felt across parts of Northern Ireland, northern England, north-western Wales and western Scotland, where exposed sites could get gusts in excess of 80mph, which has the potential to cause impacts for those in these areas.
