On Thursday, Storm Nelson made its way towards Britain, bringing snow showers with it. Unfortunately, the storm claimed four lives in Spain before moving on to the UK. In northern Spain, two individuals lost their lives after falling into the sea in Asturias and Cudillero. Meanwhile, in southern Catalonia, Tarragona saw two more drownings in the sea. One of the victims was a minor Moroccan boy who got into trouble in the water. A German man attempted to rescue him but tragically both lost their lives.
The Spanish Meteorological Institute issued a weather warning for large parts of the Spanish coast and the Canary Islands due to dangerous waves and strong winds. Wave heights could reach up to 6–7 meters, prompting advice for people to avoid rocky cliffs. The storm also affected France’s south and west with strong winds and high waves. As Storm Nelson continued its path towards Britain, snowfall was reported in northern England and Wales, raising concerns about potential disruptions in Easter traffic in Britain.
The consequences of Storm Nelson were felt across various regions as it continued on its path towards Britain.

The impact of Storm Nelson is still being assessed as it continues on its course towards its final destination – Britain’s shores.
