The devastating storm has caused major damage and disruptions on the roads along the coastal area of the Mediterranean island. The gusts sent piles of sea bream flying off the sea and landed on the roads in Xemxija, near St Paul's Bay in north Malta.

A man can be heard saying: "One of the fish farms must have broke open, and there's hundreds and hundreds of fish that have been blown ashore, and these people are here picking up the fish from the middle of the street." Part of the island suffered power outage as the gale-force reached gusts of up to 101 kilometre per hour.
