Storm number six of the season, Storm Eunice, has wreaked havoc across the country.
Officially named by the Met Office on February 14, the latest storm quickly followed Storm Dudley.
Scotland faced extremely strong winds and blizzard conditions in some parts as the storm posed 'danger to life' across the country.
But where did the name Eunice come from?
Mother of Timothy, Eunice features in the Bible as well as appearing in Greek mythology - reports Wales Online.
Eunice was the wife of King Tiberius Julius Cotys I in the Roman Empire.
Additionally, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, sister of JFK, was the founder of the Special Olympics while Nina Simone's birth name was Eunice Kathleen Waymon.
There are also at least seven places and two lakes named Eunice.
But how did the latest storm get its name?
The season began with Storm Arwen, which was named on November 25.
The new storms list – first launched in 2015 – for each year generally runs from early September until late August the following year, coinciding with the beginning of autumn.
Members of the public can suggest names by emailing nameourstorms@metoffice.gov.uk.
Storms are named when they have the potential to cause an amber or red warning.
A list of possible names are compiled by Irish forecaster Met Eireann, the UK’s Met Office and the Dutch national weather forecasting service KNMI.
Naming storms is seen as a way of improving the communication of upcoming severe weather through the media and government agencies, the Met Office said.
The forecaster added: “In this way the public will be better placed to keep themselves, their property and businesses safe.”
The next storm is due to be named Franklin, followed by Gladys.
