Storm Bert: Two dead as flood alerts remain in place

Disruption caused by Storm Bert continues into Monday with at least two people confirmed dead after "devastating" flooding over the weekend.

The last of the Met Office’s rain warnings ended at 11.59pm on Sunday but strong winds persist and rain from high ground will reach rivers, which could disrupt clean-up efforts.

More than 200 flood alerts remain in place for England and Wales with travel issues set to continue into the week.
