#2 - Disaster Recap - January 2025: Storm Éowyn (Mr. Paul Downes)

Background: Storm Éowyn, a powerful extratropical cyclone, wreaked significant havoc across the UK, Ireland, and parts of Scandinavia in late January 2025. It inflicted widespread damage, particularly to the electricity network, affecting over 560,000 homes, businesses, and farms, and causing numerous power outages. The storm also brought intense winds, with recorded gusts up to 184 km/h in Ireland and 217 km/h in Scotland, leading to extensive structural damage, hazardous travel conditions, and further environmental impacts like blizzard conditions in higher elevations of Scotland​. This episode will explore the science behind this record storm and its impacts on both the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom.


Guest:

  • Mr. Paul Downes (Met Éireann, Ireland)


Co-Hosts:

  • Dr. Mark Ashley Parry (Northumbria University, United Kingdom)
