Storm Bert UK flood chaos goes on as 132 warnings in place including ‘danger to life’ alert

Storm Bert continues to cause chaos across the UK with 132 flood warnings now in place including “danger to life” fears.

Homes were submerged under water and businesses and schools were forced to shut after winds battered parts of Britain with speeds of up to 82mph following Storm Bert. While the last of the rain warnings from the Met Office ended at 11.59pm on Sunday, strong winds are set to continue and rain from high ground is expected to reach rivers, which could hamper clean-up efforts.

Caravans at the Billing Aquadrome Holiday Park, near Northampton, were left flooded after it was affected by devastating Storm Bert. The Aquadrome’s caravan park was forced to evacuate 1,000 people yesterday morning after it was submerged by the highest floodwater in 35 years. It currently has a “danger to life” warning.

The flood warning said: “This is a severe flood warning for the Billing Aquadrome and nearby business parks. This warning has been re-issued due to deep and fast flowing water which remains on the park and which will continue to be extremely hazardous throughout the night. This means there is danger to life and you must act now. Call 999 if in immediate danger, follow advice from emergency services, keep yourself and your family safe. Severe flooding is expected to continue. Please evacuate the area.”
