Storm Eowyn battered Northern Ireland with life-threatening winds today.

Dramatic footage captured by Jonathan shows trees swaying as the storm arrived in Antrim on Friday, January 24.

The Met Office has issued red weather warnings as Eowyn impacts the UK.

The worst disruption is expected to affect Northern Ireland and parts of Scotland, with gusts reaching up to 100 mph (161 km/h) in some coastal areas.

A provisional wind gust of 114 mph (183 km/h) recorded at Mace Head in County Galway, Ireland, is the strongest ever reported by the national weather agency, Met Éireann. Approximately 560,000 homes and businesses are currently without power.

Authorities in both the United Kingdom and Ireland have closed schools and advised residents to stay indoors.
