0:00:26 > 0:00:29Let's start by talking about the major storm that's flooded houses,
0:00:29 > 0:00:32closed schools, and blocked roads.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36These pictures show the effect Storm Desmond has had since it hit parts

0:00:53 > 0:00:56in just 24 hours.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59Flooding has forced thousands of people from their homes
0:00:59 > 0:01:01in Cumbria in north-west England.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Strong winds have also made it dangerous for drivers too.

0:01:22 > 0:01:30It's not the first time people here have been affected by flooding.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Five years ago, heavy rain caused even more damage.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Flooding and landslides also brought disruption to Scotland, especially
0:01:35 > 0:01:36in the Borders and Tayside.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Already this morning, the clean-up operation has swung into action.

0:01:42 > 0:01:54being told to take extra care.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04There have been hundreds of people rescued in Carlisle alone,
0:02:04 > 0:02:06obviously significant numbers across the country.
0:02:06 > 0:02:07We have got about 5,000 houses flooded,
0:02:07 > 0:02:16we don't know exactly the numbers.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17From today, we are looking at recovery.
0:02:17 > 0:02:22In a lot of Cumbria now, the water has subsided.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25But, as you can see, we still have significant flooding.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29The problem is recovery will take a long time.
