- Published

The National Police Air Service helicopter based in Redhill (@NPAS-Redhill) has been surveying the scene along the River Medway in Kent following heavy rain on Christmas Eve.

Peter Fox, from the Environment Agency, said there was a "real cause of concern" as more rain was forecast.

Thousands of homes were without power over Christmas and some may not be connected until the end of the week.

Many rivers, including the River Medway, remain flooded after the storms on 24 December

About 1,000 homes were flooded in south-east and south-west England, with pre-Christmas travel plans disrupted for many.

Tonbridge was one of many areas flooded as levels in the River Medway rose. More rain is forecast overnight and into Friday, the Met Office said.
