Storm Darragh hit the UK last weekend, wreaking havoc and causing significant meteorological disruption across the UK, with wind speeds reaching up to 150 km/h. The Met Office issued a rare red weather warning for the Bristol Channel coast, indicating extreme wind conditions. Wind gusts exceeded 145 km/h in multiple regions, leading to widespread power outages affecting thousands of households. Structural damage was reported due to wind-induced stress on buildings, including dislodged roof panels. Coastal areas experienced significant wave dynamics, prompting safety closures in places like Weston-super-Mare. Additionally, the storm triggered widespread transportation suspensions, disrupting railway and road networks. The National Grid is actively working to restore electricity in southern Wales, Devon, and Cornwall. Meteorological data shows that the storm's intensity was particularly notable in coastal and western regions of the UK.

🌍 Real-Time Weather Insights Supporting Smarter Cities 🌆 The Urban Data Platform Frankfurt (UDP) demonstrates how data can power smarter, more connected urban living. With real-time information on air quality, traffic, pedestrian volumes, and hyper-local temperature mapping, the platform equips citizens with the tools to navigate their city more efficiently and safely. We're proud that the meteoblue weather data contributes to this innovative solution. By providing precise air temperature data with an accuracy of 10x10 metres, the platform enables citizens to identify heat islands or cooler zones during summer, and areas prone to frost and ice in winter. This empowers vulnerable groups—such as the elderly, pregnant women, and children—to make informed decisions about their movements during extreme weather conditions. This is data in action, enabling sustainable urban development and enhancing quality of life. 🌟 #SmartCity #UrbanData #meteoblue #WeatherData #Frankfurt
