Summary

  • 42,000 homes remain without power due to Storm Amy
  • Winds reached over 100mph in exposed areas
  • Extensive damage to rail network and road closures

On October 4th, 2025, the UK is still reeling from the aftermath of Storm Amy, which swept across the country on the previous day. The powerful storm has left around 42,000 homes without power, with the distribution network operator for northern Scotland, SSEN, reporting extensive damage to their infrastructure.

The storm's high winds, reaching over 100mph in exposed areas, have caused significant disruption to the country's transportation network. Many railway lines and roads have been closed, and ferry services have been disrupted. Network Rail Scotland has reported more than 170 separate incidents, with teams working around the clock to repair the extensive damage.

The Met Office has issued weather warnings for the affected regions, with an amber warning of "damaging" winds in force in northern Scotland until the evening of October 4th. The storm has also set a new record for the deepest area of low pressure in the UK for October, with a central pressure of 947.9 hectopascal (hPa) recorded at Baltasound, Shetland.

Despite the ongoing challenges, SSEN and other emergency services are working tirelessly to restore power and reopen transportation links as quickly as possible. The impact of Storm Amy serves as a stark reminder of the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, and the need for robust infrastructure and emergency preparedness measures to mitigate their effects.
