At least two deaths are being attributed to Storm Dennis on Monday as it continues to strike at parts of England, Wales and Ireland, per AccuWeather.

- Flights have been rerouted and canceled due to the storm. Wind speeds reached 80 mph in the United Kingdom on Sunday, with speeds reaching 112 mph in Bealach Na Ba in the Scottish Highlands.
- About 320 flood warnings, where fast-flowing or deep floodwater was particularly dangerous, were issued across Britain, including South Wales, on Sunday, the New York Times reports.
