Authorities in Scotland have canceled trains and closed parks as a rare summer storm brings destructive winds to northern Britain.

The last of 72,000 homes which lost power during Storm Floris have been reconnected after five days. Power network Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) said the storm was “exceptional” and that its response operation in the north of Scotland was “comparable to those usually seen in the depths of winter”.

An amber storm warning, covering much of mainland Scotland and the western islands, is now in force until 22:00.
