Storm Lilian is causing travel chaos across parts of the UK, with flights being cancelled and drivers urged to take caution. Strong winds of up to 80mph are expected in northern England and Wales, leading to potential travel disruptions, flooding, power outages, and hazardous conditions near coastal areas.
British Airways has been forced to cancel 14 flights departing from Heathrow on Friday, including international flights to Italy, Switzerland, and the US, as well as domestic flights to Scotland and Northern Ireland. The airline cited air traffic control restrictions due to adverse weather as the reason for the schedule adjustments.
