Severe Storms Batter Britain, France
Severe storms battered Britain and France on Monday, stranding ferry passengers at sea, uprooting trees, disrupting transport and knocking out power to thousands of homes. At least four people were reported killed. Many flights were delayed or canceled at London's
Heathrow Airport, the world's busiest for international travelers. All flights out of Paris' Charles de Gaulle airport were temporarily suspended. Road travel in Britain slowed to a crawl and large sections of the M25 highway circling London were closed.
