Thousands lose power as storm Eowyn sweeps across Ireland

Storm Eowyn has left thousands without power across Ireland, with around one million homes, farms, and businesses affected. Utility companies report that reconnecting power could take up to 10 days for many customers. As clean-up efforts begin, weather warnings have been lifted, allowing workers to clear debris and restore services. Approximately 138,000 people are without water, and 750,000 more are at risk of supply issues. Dublin Airport canceled 235 flights due to the storm, which also caused significant damage to buildings, including a large indoor facility in Co Mayo. Authorities are assessing the full impact of the storm, with over 1,800 road blockages reported.
