In the United Kingdom, more than 250 places are on flood alert. Thousands of square kilometers were flooded. In addition to the rain, the British Met Services have already warned of a new cold front, which is expected to last until the end of next week.
The central and southern parts of England are the most affected areas and are at risk of continuing to rise. More than 250 locations across the UK are on alert. Officials say the biggest impact is likely this Saturday, with rivers rising higher than usual.
Thousands of homes have been flooded and hundreds of roads closed in recent days. In many places, people had to leave their homes. Many were rescued by the authorities. Those who have already returned feel the desolation of those who have lost almost everything.
Support for flood victims is already becoming a political issue, with the Labor opposition accusing the government of failing to respond. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak says everything is under control.
Meanwhile, the British Met Services are reporting that the pole is approaching with very strong winds and temperatures will drop from this Saturday. The cold weather is expected to last through next weekend.
