ബ്രിട്ടനില് കൊടുങ്കാറ്റ്, പ്രളയം
കൊടുങ്കാറ്റിലും പേമാരിയിലും ബ്രിട്ടനില് കനത്തനാശം. 30 അടി ഉയരത്തിലാണു തിരമാലകള് ബ്രിട്ടന്റെ തീരദേശത്ത് ആഞ്ഞടിച്ചത്. തീരദേശറോഡുകളും റെയില്പാതകളും തകര്ന്നു. 20 വര്ഷത്തിനിടെ ബ്രിട്ടനിലുണ്ടായ ഏറ്റവും വലിയ പ്രകൃതിക്ഷോഭമാണിതെന്നു കാലാവസ്ഥാ നിരീക്ഷണകേന്ദ്രം അറിയിച്ചു.വെയില്സ് തീരത്താണു കൂടുതല് നാശമുണ്ടായത്. കനത്ത മഞ്ഞുവീഴ്ചയ്ക്കു സാധ്യതയുള്ളതിനാല് ജാഗ്രത പാലിക്കണമെന്നു ബ്രിട്ടിഷ് ഭരണകൂടം മുന്നറിയിപ്പു നല്കി.
Dozens of flood warnings remain in place in parts of the UK, with the Environment Agency warning many areas could be at risk into next week.Roads are closed because of flooding in areas including Ayrshire, Herefordshire, Somerset, West Sussex, Surrey, Berkshire and Wiltshire.
Some train routes in England, Wales and Scotland are also being disrupted by flooding and poor weather conditions, The Environment Agency said parts of England's north-east coast could see flooding while parts of the south coast - including Portsmouth and Newhaven - were also at risk.There is an increased flooding risk to Weybridge and Guildford on Sunday and into Monday and people living along the non-tidal Thames, including Oxford and Osney, could be at risk from Sunday, the agency said.
Spokesman Jonathan Day added: "The risk of flooding to the coast will continue over the next few days, especially on the south and west coast and along the Severn estuary."In addition, wet conditions have left the ground saturated in many areas, increasing the risk of river and surface water flooding."However, about 230 flood alerts - meaning flooding is possible, be prepared - are in place in England and Wales, in addition to nearly 100 flood warnings.Hundreds of homes have been flooded, from Cornwall to Scotland, after storms battered the UK's coastline.On Saturday, Prime Minister David Cameron praised the "great work" of the agencies involved in responding to the latest floods.Environment Secretary Owen Paterson also thanked emergency services, adding: "The worst of the bad weather is not yet over so I've chaired an emergency meeting of all departments involved to make sure that preparations to respond are in hand."I would urge all those in at risk areas to sign up to the Environment Agency warnings and listen to advice being issued."Meanwhile, the search for a teenager in Devon who has been missing since Thursday will continue later.Harry Martin, 18, from Membland, Newton Ferrers, has not been seen since he left home to take photographs of stormy seas.
