New weather warnings have been issued – including a possible danger to life in some coastal areas – after Storm Kathleen brought disruption to parts of the UK and Ireland.

Planes struggled to land at some airports on Saturday, with flights cancelled and tens of thousands of people left without power as the storm brought winds of more than 70mph.

Now the Met Office has issued severe weather warnings for Monday and Tuesday as a second low pressure system moves in.

The gusts in the southwest of England bring “a small chance that injuries or danger to life” could result from waves and debris, the Met Office said.

It also cautioned of the chance of power cuts and travel disruption.

On Saturday evening, a girl was rescued from the sea off Dun Laoghaire, Co Dublin, in Ireland.

The rescue operation was mounted after she was swept out to sea from the east pier of Dun Laoghaire Harbour at around 8.20pm and she was later taken to hospital for non life-threatening injuries.
