United Kingdom
The UK is on alert for lashing winds and torrential rain to arrive around the middle of next week as two mega-tempests plough in from the Atlantic.
Hurricane Dorian is on track to take a northeastwards turn and will begin to lose power before uniting with newly-formed
Tropical Storm Gabrielle churning the Atlantic off the west coast of Africa.
The remains of both weather systems will merge into one 1,500-mile wide low-pressure cyclone before speed-charging northeastwards towards the UK at speeds of 100km/h. It will bring a bout of wet and windy weather mainly to northern parts of Britain towards the middle of next week.
