Storm surges, strong winds and heavy rains have swept France since Monday as Storm Dirk moves eastward across the country. Winds of up to 144 km/h were recorded at the Pointe du Raz (Finistère). Some 19 districts were placed in amber alert by Météo France. In the video here, waves crash over Point de La Torch in Plomeur, France on Christmas Eve. Credit: Georges Herrou
