"Have you heard about storm that hit Scadinavia 24 hours ago? Cyclone
Berndt swept over southern Sweden, 1 dead, 100 000 lost power, 50 000 are
still without power two days ago cyclone Axel swept over nothern Finland.
average wind speed 40 m/s, max gust 51 m/s, but no destruction, as it
happened so far north..."

Here is a quote from a news story from Ananova.com:

"Heavy winds knocked out power to 100,000 people as the storm swept across
the central and southern areas.

In neighbouring Norway, thousands were without power and train traffic came
to a standstill in the southern part of the country, the Norwegian news
agency NTB reported."
