Storm Agnes is considered the first named storm of the season in Britain, with expectations that it will bring heavy rain to many areas, with the risk of torrential rains and floods also forming in some areas.
It is noteworthy that the “warm Gulf Stream” contributes to putting Britain in the range of deep Atlantic depressions, and perhaps the remnants of hurricanes originating far away in the warm “Atlantic” waters, but it - that is, the “Gulf Stream” - protects it from the scourges of a bitterly cold winter, as happens in regions Similar "latitudes" are in Russia and Canada, where the minimum temperature in the latter at night drops below the barrier (minus 40°C) on many harsh winter nights, while it is slightly below (minus 5°C) in Britain.
