Iberian Storm Kristin knocks out power as it sweeps Portugal into Spain

Storm Kristin killed at least three people in central and northern Portugal, left over 800,000 residents without electricity, toppled trees and damaged homes, and disrupted roads and rail as it moved east into Spain, where snow and high winds triggered widespread road closures and red alerts; a woman was killed by a palm tree in Torremolinos, and authorities worked to restore power amid thousands of weather-related incidents.
