Suomi ei ole ainoa maa, jossa myrskytuulet ovat viime päivinä puhaltaneet. Cumbrian alueella Luoteis-Englannissa on tullut viime päivinä runsaasti vettä. Kadut ovat tulvineet, siltoja on romahtanut ja lukuisat kotitaloudet ovat ilman sähköä.

Kakkosliigassa pelaavan Carlisle Unitedin kotistadionkin on joutunut veden valtaan. Seuran pelaajat päättivät yksissä tuumin sunnuntaisen FA Cup -ottelun jälkeen lähteä mukaan talkoisiin.
