Heavy rains and high winds battered the British Isles and much of the Continent, with Baltic ports closed, Danish roads snowbound, and Italy hit by rain and snow affecting crops. In France, 300 deaths were reported from a dam break near Frejus, prompting civil orders to ready transport for flood wards.
