Great to hear @floodmary on @radiohumberside this morning talking about Flood Recovery and offering some very sound advice. You can access the Recovery Guide that Mary referred to here: https://t.co/UmJGakZOXL #Humberside #flooding #floodrecovery

This is the @metoffice February % of monthly average rainfall map. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like it.

[Clare Dinnis @ClareDinnisWWT]

I’m not really sure what to say about this.

There are some scarily impressive numbers here. But it’s like someone showing you evidence the nightmare is real.

Thinking of all those on the receiving end of this rain, and all those doing their utmost to help them.

The way this has been reported makes me sound very harsh ( which is the last thing I am) but the adaptation suggestions are good.

Water levels are now receding on the West Park flood storage area. It’s designed to prevent #floodrisk to properties in #LongEaton #Derbyshire. Happy to say it’s done it’s job.

The weather might be looking better but sadly flooding continues. There are currently 6 severe flood warnings and 206 flood warnings, please keep an eye on .gov.uk for updates and take care when out and about #StormDennis
