Storm Babet is causing chaos across the UK with 70mph winds turning the sea into a "killer whipped cream" concoction.<\/p>\n
The coasts of Aberdeen, Scotland, were left looking like a destroyed Mr Whippy machine as a reporter took to the beach to document the state of the land so far. A "foam tsunami" brewed just a short distance away and splattered the mainland.<\/p>\n
Wild weather and "danger to life" warnings are in place, with the Met Office administering the rare red caution ahead of Storm Babet's arrival on Scottish, Welsh and English shores.<\/p>\n

With the esplanade already covered and an entire Scottish town evacuated, the UK forecast is already taking its toll on members of the public. One was knocked off their feet as they captured footage of the choppy waters.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, with footage of the storm, one weather-battered reporter wrote: "Just been out doing my intrepid @pressjournal reporter thing for #StormBabet in Aberdeen. This is the esplanade now. The scream is the foam tsunami knocking me off my feet!"<\/p>\n
Footage showed the waters turned into a gooey-looking mush with one bloke seen running dangerously close to the froth which was soon launched over the railing and onto the mainland. <\/p>\n
Fellow X users noted the foam "doesn't look too healthy", and it appears the whipped-up waves were a mixture of sea, storm, sand and salt. A dreadful concoction, and one of many disastrous results from Storm Babet so far.<\/p>\n

Residents of Brechin, Scotland, were told to leave their homes and pack up their belongings as the Met Office fears the worst for the area. A total of 360 properties while emergency centres were opened up and asked people to bring their own medical supplies.<\/p>\n
From midday tomorrow, harsh weather will be in full effect and could lead to a snowstorm like no other according to reports from the Daily Star. <\/p>\n
Forecaster Greg Dewhurst said: "We're likely to see flooding, power disruption, travel disruption, there is a risk to life as well. There's also an amber wind warning out for eastern parts of Scotland, where we could see gusts of 60mph to 70mph, just adding to the extremely dangerous weather coming for parts of Scotland."<\/p>\n
