been cancelled and delayed, and roads left impassable. I've been on

:00:29.:00:32.

patrol for ten years and never seen it like this. As a result, so many

:00:33.:00:38.

people are taking too many chances, driving through big puddles.

:01:19.:01:21.

homeowners, motorists and commuters as once again heavy rainfall has

:01:22.:01:24.

flooded homes, causing major delays and cancellations on the rail

network and leaving many roads impassable. The Environment Agency

:01:27.:01:35.

has 11 flood warnings and alerts in place across the South East this

evening. In a moment, we'll get the latest live from our reporters in

Austin joins us from the Kent village of Otford, near Sevdnoaks.

The high street is now a trhbutary of the River Darent with water

:02:35.:02:37.

have water coming from the front. We also have water coming from the back

:02:38.:02:42.

with the garden saturated. As fast as water is pumped, it returns. This

person spent Christmas flooded also. No warning. I did not particularly

:02:50.:02:51.

listen to the weather forecast but listen to the weather forecast but

:02:52.:02:55.

there was no warning. We have been completely unprepared. We h`ve loads

:02:56.:03:02.

of sandbags. We did not put them out. No, taken unawares again. Fire

out. No, taken unawares agahn. Fire crews arrived in the early hours.

:03:07.:03:10.

They have a difficult balancing act to perform. If we pump too luch

:03:11.:03:14.

to perform. If we pump too much water into the river we will make it

:03:15.:03:17.

worse for people who live further down and so we are trying to hold

:03:18.:03:21.

the water as opposed to pumping it away. The extent of the range ``

:03:22.:03:30.

rain seems to have taken people by surprise. The council have not

:03:31.:03:36.

issued enough sandbags. The community are helping. I phoned the

council and they cannot isste sandbags. It can take four days.

:04:15.:04:21.

people around here have been preparing properties for possible

also further downstream that is at risk, such as villages such as

:04:31.:04:42.

Edenbridge, with warnings in place. The weather has caused chaos on the

:04:43.:04:46.

roads. Ellie Price is at Three Bridges, near Crawley. What is the

:04:47.:04:52.

latest? Trains are running on a limited service. The flood waters

:04:53.:04:59.

have gone down but evidence of what happened earlier is still here,

:05:00.:05:02.

including Redcar, whose driver decided to brave the flood water and

:05:03.:05:09.

did not get out again. It is a phrase we have heard a lot of, rain

:05:10.:05:13.

falling on saturated ground. But this is what happens when it does.

:05:14.:05:19.

And despite the flood is making these roads impassable, it did not

stop some motorists from trxing The car was stuck in the water. The road

:05:35.:05:38.

patrol for ten years and have not seen it like this. As a result,

:05:39.:05:41.

seen it like this. As a restlt, people are taking too many chances

:05:42.:05:45.

and unfortunately, it will be game over for a lot of vehicles. If the

:05:46.:05:50.

road is closed, it means closed. We have many cars who took the risk and

:05:51.:05:53.

suffered the consequences. And also suffered the consequences. And also

:06:05.:06:07.

was not just the smaller roads. Part of the M25 and others were shot.

:06:08.:06:11.

Floodwater brought chaos to the morning commute. It was a shmilar

:06:12.:06:19.

story on the trains with flooding leaving Haywards Heath commtters

:06:20.:06:25.

stranded until mid`morning. A bus was the best East Grinstead

Britain, it rains, but chaos seems to rule again. I am waiting for a

bus but I do not know when it will bus but I do not know when ht will

come. The problem is there hs nowhere for the rain to drain.

:06:42.:06:43.

come. The problem is there is nowhere for the rain to drahn. The

:06:44.:06:46.

concern is that there will be more. They are praying it will not

:06:47.:06:47.

happen. Businesses in Crawldy are happen. Businesses in Crawley are

:06:48.:06:50.

already counting the cost of more rain.

:06:51.:06:56.

Today the government has announced an extra ?6.7 million to help local

:06:57.:07:01.

councils cope with the effects of flooding and severe weather.

:07:02.:07:05.

Speaking to people today, it comes as small comfort. Flooding has

:07:06.:07:12.

brought misery to homeowners in Surrey. Juliette Parkin reports from

the start of the clear up just after the Christmas flooding. What is

:07:48.:07:52.

annoying is getting back to square one, trying to sort out, and you are

:07:53.:07:57.

back to this again. The problem is, will we keep getting this in the

:07:58.:08:01.

course of the year? This is bad enough. Today, they called `n

:08:02.:08:07.

emergency meeting with the Environment Agency and council, who

:08:08.:08:12.

failed to turn up. Residents field drainage is inadequate and they are

:08:13.:08:16.

worried about new housing plans and feel they have had little hdlp. The

:08:17.:08:21.

feel they have had little help. The issue is it is an unadopted road

:08:22.:08:25.

which might help you come up with a solution or might not. Councils told

:08:26.:08:32.

us today this flooding is on a Private Road and although it is not

:08:33.:08:36.

their responsibility, they say they have helped with sandbags and pumps.

:08:37.:08:40.

It is frustrating. When we `sked have helped with sandbags and pumps.

everyone by surprise. We expected several bands of showers

:09:12.:09:16.

and they stalled and it meant in some places they saw almost two

:09:17.:09:20.

inches of rain. Elsewhere, we just saw a couple of millimetres. It is

:09:21.:09:25.

it is that impact that goes on three years. For her parents, now sadly

:10:46.:10:50.

passed away, they never knew the justice. Since her parents' death

her friends have continued to campaign for justice, holding vigils

to mark the anniversary of her murder. This year they will stage

events to celebrate her life, ensuring the case remains in the

spotlight until the killer is caught. We want people to rdmember

Claire was more than what h`ppened to her, she was a great girl and
