Storm Éowyn is set to impact the U.K. and Ireland with winds reaching up to 100 mph. The storm will bring snow, rain, and severe weather, prompting red weather warnings from the Irish meteorological service and the U.K.'s Met Office. The storm is expected to cross Northern Ireland early on January 24 and move northeast toward Scotland. It will also affect England and Wales, with warnings issued for all parts of the U.K. at some point. Storm Éowyn is intensifying rapidly due to a clash of Arctic and subtropical air, creating conditions for a powerful storm. Its severity is compared to past storms like Storm Eunice, which caused significant damage in 2022.
