UK - Heavy rain causing floods continues to hit the UK. The Met Office has warned there is a danger some towns may become cut off today after parts of the country were drenched in two inches of rain. An amber warning was put in place for an area centred around Norwich which covers parts of Norfolk and Suffolk. It said homes and businesses are likely to be flooded with damage to some buildings and adds there is “a good chance some communities are cut off by flooded roads”. It also warned of a “danger to life” due to deep or fast flowing floodwater and says power cuts are possible and driving conditions could become “difficult”. A yellow warning stretching between just north of Essex to north Lincolnshire has also in place since 8am this morning and last until 5pm tonight.
