Storm Otto lashes Scandinavia closing the Oresund bridge

[Scott]

Blocks of flats were evacuated in Denmark, the Oresund bridge to Sweden closed and Norwegian ferries cancelled as Storm Otto swept across Scandinavia.

Winds reached 145km/h (90mph) on Norway's south-west coast and forecasters in Denmark issued orange weather alerts for northern Jutland.

A Copenhagen housing company moved 280 residents out of three blocks, warning the gales could bring them down.

My first trip to Copenhagen was delayed for two days while sat off shore in an awful squall waiting for it to die down so we could make port.

 

Not my happiest traveling memory.
