Storm Lilian Disrupts Festivals, Flights, and Rail Services

Storm Lilian has wreaked havoc across the UK, disrupting the Leeds Festival by shutting down multiple stages and causing significant damage to tents and other structures, leading attendees to demand refunds. High winds and heavy rain have led to broader disruptions, including canceled flights at Heathrow and rail service interruptions in Cumbria due to flooding and landslides. The Met Office has issued yellow weather warnings for various parts of the UK, forecasting further travel disruptions and potential power cuts as the storm continues. Despite the chaos, festival organizers and attendees remain hopeful for a return to normalcy over the weekend.
