Storm Babet: UK hit by unprecedented rain

"A man in his 60s died after getting caught in fast-flowing flood water in the town of Cleobury Mortimer in Shropshire, West Mercia Police said, following the deaths of two people in Scotland. It came as Storm Babet caused widespread flooding and high winds forcing a

passenger plane to skid off a runway at Leeds Bradford Airport, which later closed.
Prior to the man's death in Shropshire, another man died after his van was hit by a falling tree on the B9127, at Whigstreet near Forfar in Scotland, on Thursday. As England, Wales and Northern Ireland faced warnings about heavy rain, Scotland continued to bear the brunt with flood defences in the town of Brechin being breached.
Roads and bridges collapsed as Storm Babet hit Scotland amid feared theh tiny village could be completely cut off for a second time, as First Minister Humza Yousaf warned “we have not seen the last of this”.... Storm Badet caused “major flooding” across the county. Several major road sections and rail routes are closed while air passengers are facing flight cancellations." MS
