The UK is preparing for a second weekend of weather disruption, as experts warn Storm Dennis could inflict more damage than Ciara when it arrives. Severe weather warnings are in place for most of the UK - and forecasters say a month's worth of rain could fall in some places. The Army is being deployed as extra support in Calderdale, West Yorkshire. Road, rail and air travellers also face disruption, with British Airways and easyJet flights among those affected. It comes after Storm Ciara flooded hundreds of homes last weekend. The Environment Agency has warned flooding is likely to be worse this weekend as already saturated ground is met with a "perfect storm" of heavy rain, strong winds and melting snow. Amber warnings for rain and yellow warnings for wind are in place for most of the country from Saturday afternoon into Sunday evening. Read More Here; www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51512824

South Wales and Herefordshire and Worcestershire have been particularly badly hit. One woman was swept into the River Severn and is now presumed dead.
