Storm Frank flooded britain UK weather destruction PICS

The powerful weather system that is set to bring “storm Frank” to the UK could lead temperatures in the north pole to be pushed over 50F hotter than normal.

The storm is set to bring yet more destruction to the UK after a week that has seen much of the north battered by terrible flooding. But that will come with a weather system that will cause huge disruption across the Arctic.

With those strange northern weather events will come an Icelandic storm that might be among the most vigorous ever, according to the Washington Post.

That storm will begin as the weather quickly becomes more intense as it travels from the western Atlantic, where it brought destruction to the area around Dallas in the US. As it moves the storm’s pressure will drop enough to make it a “bomb cyclone”, causing huge amount of disruption.

That will mean that by the time it gets to Iceland it will be one of the North Atlantic’s strongest ever storms, if the most violent projections are correct. That will bring huge, hurricane-force winds across the North Atlantic.

The storm is set to hit the UK with a fresh round of extreme weather, just as people in areas hit by flooding begin to recover. The Met Office has said that “a swathe of gale and severe gale force winds” will hit the west and north of the UK, which could also be subject to new rounds of rain that could bring yet more floods.
