Crews are clearing fallen trees and working to restore power to about 400,000 people in the UK as western Europe cleans up after one of the most damaging storms in years.
At least 12 people were killed, many by falling trees, in Ireland, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany. Named Storm Eunice by the UK and Irish weather services, and Storm Zeynep in Germany, Friday's storm was the second to hit the region in a week.
Winds toppled the spire of a church in Wells, south-west England, ripped off parts of the domed roof of London's O2 Arena and left a trail of felled trees and damaged buildings across several countries.
A gust of 196 kilometres an hour was provisionally recorded Friday on the Isle of Wight. If confirmed, it would be the highest ever in England. Hurricane-force winds begin at 119 kilometres an hour.
The Met Office weather service said more strong winds would hit the southern coasts of England and Wales on Saturday, with the potential for further damage, while snow and ice could cause disruption further north.
The UK's National Rail association said "routes across most of Great Britain" remained affected by the weather on Saturday morning, with disruptions to continue throughout the day.
Transport in Germany also remained severely disrupted, with railway operator Deutsche Bahn saying no long-distance trains would operate north of Dortmund, Hannover and Berlin until at least 6pm.
The storm left at least three people dead in Germany, including a man who fell as he was trying to repair a damaged roof and a driver whose car crashed into a tree that had fallen across a road.
In the north-western city of Bremen, a 55-metre crane fell onto an unfinished office building.
A clean-up also was underway in the Netherlands, where four people died as Eunice tore across the country on Friday.
Train services, halted during the storm, remained disrupted with the company responsible for rail infrastructure saying that it was working hard to repair "extensive" damage to tracks and overhead power lines.
Engineers were expected to assess damage to the roof of a stadium in The Hague where professional soccer team ADO The Hague plays its home matches after parts of the structure were blown loose.
