On Thursday, Storm Nelson continued its course towards Britain, bringing snow showers with it. The storm had already claimed the lives of four people in northern Spain, as reported by news agency AFP. Two individuals drowned after falling into the sea in Asturias, one in Muros del Nalón and another in Cudillero. In southern Catalonia, Tarragona saw two more people drown in the sea. A minor Moroccan boy was struggling to stay afloat and a German man tried to save him, but unfortunately both drowned.
The Spanish Meteorological Institute issued weather warnings for the Spanish coast and the Canary Islands due to dangerous waves and strong winds. Waves were expected to reach heights of up to 6-7 meters, and people were advised to avoid rocky cliffs. In England, the waves from Storm Nelson were high at Brighton Pier, while in Spain the wind was strong enough to blow a tourist’s umbrella upside down in Ronda.
The storm also affected the south and west of France with strong winds and high waves. As Storm Nelson moved towards Britain, snow was reported in northern parts of England and Wales. The storm was expected to cause chaos in Easter traffic in Britain.
