a couple of hours ago there were still more than 250 flood warnings in place across england alone. and it is easy to understand why. the period betweenjuly and december was the wettest ever recorded in the uk since records began, back in 1890. autumn rainfall was 22% above average. and in many places, december was even wetter. rainfall was up to 70% above average in central and northern england and eastern scotland. and this week we got storm henk, the eighth named storm since september. that's the highest number over that period since the met office started naming these most dangerous storms, back in 2015. flood experts say some people only got official warnings after water had already got into their homes. if you have been flooded, remember, you should never enter flood water. it can be deeper and faster flowing than you think and it's also almost always full of sewage.
