Storm Babet triggers flooding, power cuts in northern Europe

Deadly Storm Babet unleashed extensive flooding and damaged towns in Denmark and Norway late Friday and early Saturday, while continuing to sweep across the UK. Three people died in Scotland and England and families were trapped in flooded homes on Friday as the storm battered Britain and Ireland. After it made landfall in Scandinavia, the storm triggered a sharp rise in water levels in towns in southern Denmark, flooding the first floor of homes which were left without power for several hours.
