    Default Storm Dennis: More heavy rain forecast amid flood defence fears

    About 1,400 homes and businesses have been affected by the floods in the wake of downpours brought by Storm Dennis.

    The Rivers Wye and Severn reached their highest-ever levels, with people evacuated from nearby at-risk areas

    Across the UK, around 140 flood warnings remain in place, including six severe - or "danger to life" - warnings

    Among the worst affected areas are south Wales, Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Shropshire, where major incidents have been declared.

    The Met Office warnings for rain cover south Wales and north-west Wales from 15:00 GMT on Wednesday until 12:00 on Thursday, with 70-100mm (4in) of rain likely in the north west.

    The north-west England is warned to expect similar levels of rain, with a yellow warning in place from 18:00 on Wednesday to 15:00 on Thursday.

    Another warning is in place for the west of Scotland from 14:00 on Wednesday until 11:00 on Thursday, with "persistent and occasionally heavy rain".

    On Friday, a further warning comes into force for Yorkshire from 12:00 on Friday until 06:00 on Saturday, with 60-80mm (3in) of rain expected in some of the areas which have already seen the wettest conditions.

    If it happened 200 years ago it’s not a global issue then look we had the hose pipe ban in 1996 in UK but the rain fall was the heaviest 200 years a go just doesn’t add up the theories, we will now found out if it ever happen again another 200 years……

    No worries SJ. Just stay clear of B&Q please.
