SWEPT AWAY: Several cars are seen being carried away by rushing floodwaters, after a nearby river broke its banks during the second storm to slam into the United Kingdom in a week.

Stay up to date on the developing stories making headlines.Rivers across Britain burst their banks and a number of severe flood warnings remained in place as authorities strove to get people to safety and to protect homes and businesses. The Met Office, Britain's meteorological service. said the disruption is set to carry through into Monday.

On Saturday, Storm Dennis was blamed for the deaths of two men who were pulled from the sea in separate searches off England's southeastern coast. Though the warning only lasted a few hours, South Wales Police declared a major incident as firefighters and rescue crews continued to help communities following multiple floods, landslides and evacuations. Nearby Gwent Police said residents of Skenfrith, Monmouthshire, were being advised to evacuate due to the flooding.

John Curtin, the executive director of flood and coastal risk management at the Environment Agency, said in a tweet that at one point during the day, England had the most flood warnings and lower-level alerts in force — 594 — than on any other day on record. Curtin from the Environment Agency said in a tweet that the “high but not exceptional" rainfall figures of the past 24 hours shows how the legacy of Storm Ciara has “driven the widespread significant flooding we're seeing."
