More rain is expected to fall on Tuesday and Wednesday in southern England and south Wales as Storm Bert continues to cause disruption.

Some areas around the River Nene in Northamptonshire are under severe flood warnings and a holiday park has been flooded for the third time this year.

Around 300 properties have been damaged by flood water across South Wales, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire.

Earlier in the week, emergency services helped people to bail water out of their homes across the South Wales valleys.

Tilly, who is 11, from Abertillery in Blaenau Gwent, had to help repair damage caused by a landslide after a coal tip collapsed close to her auntie's home.

"I helped by shovelling loads of dirt and stones and carried them to fill in the holes as all the water was filling them up".

More than 100 flood warnings are still in place, which tell people that "flooding is expected".

Environment Secretary Steve Reed said the impact of flooding "should be less severe" across Tuesday and Wednesday but "further flooding is sadly likely over the next few days as water levels rise in slower flowing rivers such as the Severn and the Ouse."

Storm Bert is the second named storm of the 2024/25 season which began on 1 September, but stormy conditions are expected to ease on Monday.

Welsh First Minister Eluned Morgan has said the floods in Wales brought by Storm Bert have been "absolutely devastating".

Ms Morgan said emergency services had been prepared for the storm, but added that "when you get the kind of enormity of rain we鈥檝e had over the past few days", minimising the impact was always "going to be difficult".
