Serious disruption to travel is continuing on Wednesday, with hundreds of flood warnings in place after Storm Henk battered parts of the UK.

On Tuesday, a man in his 50s died after a tree fell on the car he was driving in Gloucestershire, police said.

Large parts of England and Wales experienced strong winds and heavy rain during the storm.

Almost 300 flood warnings are in place in England, while thousands of homes are without power due to fallen trees.

A severe flood warning, meaning there is a danger to life, has been issued for Billing Aquadrome, a leisure park in Northampton, and surrounding business units.

Local media reported that hundreds were told to evacuate amid rising water levels from the River Nene.

The flood warning, issued by the Environment Agency, warned the situation posed a danger to life, and that the water may be “deep and fast flowing”.

On Wednesday, the Met Office issued a new yellow warning for rain covering the south of England, which will be in effect from 12:00 GMT on Thursday until 03:00 on Friday.

The forecaster says further flooding with a future 334 flood alerts for possible flooding, travel disruption and power cuts may be possible.

It comes after flooding and power failures hit the UK’s rail network on Tuesday, with disruption continuing in some parts on Wednesday.

  • Network Rail, which owns and manages the infrastructure, expects disruption to continue in the south and south-west of England because of trains and crew being displaced
  • South Western Railway suspended services for several hours on Tuesday after tress fell on the tracks. It has urged people to check whether their trains are running as planned on Wednesday
  • Some lines are blocked on Great Western Railway’s network because of flooding
  • There is also disruption on parts of Thameslink, Southern, Gatwick Express and Great Northern, while repairs to the infrastructure are carried out
  • Southeastern said several trains from Kent and Sussex to London have been cancelled as they are not in the right place to start following the storm
  • Do not travel warnings are also in place on two Greater Anglia routes

Some of England’s major roads have been closed because of flooding, including the A52 westbound carriageway between Nottingham and Edwalton.
