Storm Henk wreaks chaos across UK | Locals forced to paddle through flooded streets

#stormhenk #uknews #weather
Gloucestershire locals swapped cars for boats on Friday (January 5), as flooding forced them to paddle through the streets of the southwestern English county.

Major rivers across Britain were flooded after heavy rain, with the government issuing more than 300 flood warnings, travel operators announcing serious disruption and around 1,000 homes suffering damage so far.

A succession of storms in recent weeks meant prolonged rainfall that started on Thursday fell on saturated ground and quickly caused already-swollen rivers and waterways to burst their banks across England and Wales.

The storms have also caused flooding in other parts of Europe in recent days.
