The currently only storm system in Europe, located north of Iceland, is currently still fairly powerful, however is expected to dissipate within 24h. There is no risk for major areas on land, some small islands in the north sea and around Iceland might still experience storm-forced wind. Because there is no major landmass affected. ESC has not issued warnings or watches. Below is the latest GFS analysis of peak gusts.

The ESC Overview as well as watches and warnings have been issued once again! This time, not much wind is to be expected for mainland Europe, but there will be quite a bit of wind on the Islands of the Atlantic. See the Warnings and Watches for more information.

The storm currently just south of Greenland will lose intensity, and the second storm will move to the northeast and quite quickly gain intensity, and will cause severe storm gusts in Ireland, UK, Iceland and the other islands.

Storm Ruzica, which brought storm gusts over 160km/h to central Europe yesterday, is now quickly weakening and is currently located over Scandinavia. However, a new storm is approaching from the West, named SUSANNA. Along the cold front of that storm, a new low is predicted to form over northern Italy.

Powerful and severe storm RUZICA is making landfall in Europe today, and, even though forecasts vary quite a bit, is expected to bring quite a bit of wind. In Germany, numerous carnival parades have been cancelled because of security risks. Below are the ESC Overview as well as the Warnings and Watches. Stay safe!

A new storm has formed in the past couple hours, currently located over the North Atlantic. It is named "PIA", and will continue to move towards the Northesat. Below arethe M.I.L.K. ESC Overview maps.

The remaints of storm NORKYS, which caused storm gusts quite a bit over 200km/h in the UK, are currently located over southern Scandinavia and will continue to move east. Within 12 hours, most of the damaging winds are expected to dissipate. Europe will generally be fairly calm today, with no new storm system taking over from the west. A new, and possibly very powerful storm system is expected to form over the North Atlantic tomorrow, and might cause severe storm gusts in Iceland.

Storm NORKYS, currently located to the North of the UK, will continue moving eastwards and is now also affecting central Europe with its wind field. Peak gusts in the UK reached up to 230km/h, showing the extreme force of this storm. The central pressure is currently 966hPa. Gusts have significantly started to pick up in central Europe, exceeding 150km/h on some mountains. NORKYS is the only Atlantic storm in the region, and therefore ESC decided to not publish the "traditional" overview.

Severe storm MARITA, currently located North of Ireland, is already causing storm gusts over 170km/h in the UK, and locally wind speeds can be even higher. In Ireland, there are currently 3,500 people without electricity thanks to MARITA. Warnings have been issued for big parts of Northern Europe. Please be careful in these regions! Below are the ESC overview as well as the Warnigns and Watches map.

As storm Leonie moves towards the east and is dissipating, a new and powerful storm has formed near Iceland, with peak gusts currently calculted to be exceeding 150km/h. The storm will strike the British Isles with full force today, bringing the possibility for peak gusts up to 170km/h even in non-mountainous regions in the N. The storm will move further east, and hence warnings and watches have been issued for a vast part of Northern Europe. Below are the ESC Overview as well as the Warnigns and Watches map.

Europe will remain under the influence of a westerly flow, bringing storm systems with it. Today, storm warnings have been issued for many countries bordering the North and Baltic Sea. Below is the ESC overview.

Storm KARIN is currently raging in the UK and Ireland, bringing gusts up to 130km/h to the islands. ESC expects the storm to later affect parts of mainland Europe (see the warnings and watches issued). But it won't stay calm in the British isles, because storm LEONIE is already forming over the northern Atlantic. See below for more information.

There are currently two storms that ESC tracks. Storm IRIS, located near Iceland, has caused severe storm gusts over 160km/h locally in the UK, while the other storm is quite a bit weaker and is currently lingering over the northern Atlantic. Below is the ESC overview as well as the warnings and watches.

There are currently three powerful storms located over the northern Atantic, however the majority of Europe will stayx safe in the coming 48h. A couple warnings have been issued for teh British Isles and surroundings. See the maps for more information.

Even though there is a nameless severe storm making landfall in Greenland currently, Europe will remain affected by a high-pressure system and hence the wind will be calm. However, the high pressure will gradually weaken and storm gusts might affect Iceland and Ireland towards the end of the forecast period.
