A second storm is set to hit the UK today just hours after a nine-year-old boy and a woman were killed in Storm Malik.
A nine-year-old boy in Staffordshire and a 60-year-old woman in Aberdeen died after being hit by falling trees amid heavy winds on Saturday.
In Greater Manchester, a woman cheated death when a huge falling tree crushed her car in Dunham Road, Altrincham.

A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police said her injuries were not believed to be life-threatening after she was rescued by firefighters.
The Met Office has said that another blast of severe strong winds, now officially named Storm Corrie, is set to hit parts of the UK.
A yellow weather warning for wind has been issued across Greater Manchester from 3pm today until midday tomorrow.
Experts predict the storm will likely cause some travel disruption and generate some large and dangerous waves around coastal areas.
People are being warned to expect disruption to road, rail, air and ferry services, while power cuts may occur.
The Met Office also say there could be some damage to buildings and trees, such as tiles blown from roofs and injuries and danger to life from flying debris are possible.
Chief meteorologist Dan Suri said: "Storm Corrie will bring very strong winds to the north of the UK, especially northern Scotland, on Sunday.
"This follows just one day after Storm Malik moves though also bringing a spell of very strong winds.
"Storm Corrie will bring gusts of up to 90mph in exposed coastal locations in northern Scotland, with 70-80mph gusts more widely in the north."
