"Severe Storm Babet Ravages Scotland and Northern Europe, Causing Fatalities and Evacuations"

Gale-force winds and heavy rain continue to batter Northern Europe, causing floods and disruptions in several countries. Storm Babet, named by the UK's Met Office, is expected to hit Denmark, the British Isles, Sweden, Norway, and northern Germany. Eastern Scotland is particularly affected, with a "red" warning issued for the region. Three deaths have been reported in the UK due to the severe weather. River levels are rising, flood defenses have been breached, and transportation services have been disrupted. The storm has already brought a month's worth of rain to Scotland, and more rain is expected.
