More than 3,700 homes in the south west region were without electricity on Saturday morning, according to the National Grid map.
This came after the electricity company on Friday night confirmed that engineers had restored power to more than 60,000 homes since the storm began.
The Met Office said the power cuts could potentially be replicated across the amber areas in the north this weekend. The day will start with dry weather for many on Saturday but a high pressure system moving in means heavy rain will quickly sweep the whole country.
Met Office meteorologist Alex Burkill said: “There’s more stormy weather to come as we go through this weekend, especially across northern parts – that’s where we’re going to see the strongest winds.
“Storm Boelo is arriving. It’s going to bring widespread rain and some very strong winds indeed, and it’s quick on the tails of Storm Austen which is now clearing away towards the east.
“All of us will see some fairly persistent rain particularly as we go through the afternoon.
“In the west it’s going to be fairly heavy, some high totals which could lead to a bit of flooding in places, and nonetheless there will be some significant spray on the roads.
“It’s the winds that were perhaps most concerned about, they’re really going to whip up some strong gusty winds across Northern Ireland, northern parts of England and also Scotland through the day – strengthening as we head towards the evening.”
