UK Flooding Causes Misery

Continued rainfall in the UK is causing misery for thousands. The most intense September storm in 30 years has triggered 50 flood warnings. The River Ouse flowing into York is causing particularly problems and paeaked at over 5 metres above its normal level. Even though the worst of the rain has now stopped, rain will still run off the mountains into the rivers for days to come.
