thank you for now, katie austen at paddington station in - austen at paddington station in london.nter, but this feels extreme for many people, let's discuss what's happening with our weather presenter louise lear:|t s been a very wet winter so far, what s been causing this? what has caused this? we know a warmer world can mean a wetter world. that means when we get to see significant areas low pressure that is the potential for significant rainfall to come from that low. if you look at the satellite sequence across the uk for the last 12 days, you can see the bombardment of cloud. we see one area of low pressure being replaced by another. it looks likely the december 2023 is going to be one of the wettest on record for some and actually, january, and we are only into the 5th of january, we see three significant areas of low pressure across the uk already. aha, significant areas of low pressure across the uk already.— across the uk already. a lot of named storms, _ across the uk already. a lot of named storms, explain - across the uk already. a lot of named storms, explain the . na

cancel to painting, cancel to edinburgh and cancelled to london paddington.building up, the cancellations on these lines. we saw in that report, flooding on some of those branch lines, so a lot in the south—west as well as the main line that runs from london paddington right through to penzance, a lot of those little branch lines that go off in devon and cornwall and there is flooding on the list card to lou line at the moment so there is no service running there at all and they are trying to foot plus is on but this has come and they don't always bring those buses into operation. so you are going to have to expect, if you are going to have to expect, if you are thinking of travelling on the trains into the south—west from london, through bristol and into cornwall and devon that they will be those cancellations that could happen at any moment. they may cancel a train a very short notice and looking at the arrivals and departures from exeter saint david's, there will be delayed. and nottingham, i was also looking at the transport situation in nottingham and th

that still be advice as i stand at paddington station| as i stand at paddington station this morning.say things are better than they could have been. many services on the board this morning but speaking to one member of staff, she said that although they are trying to get the early services out, there will still be disruption until midday today. but advice is to check your service before you set off. the same woman told me she had never seen a night like it in her 15 years of working here. she said just one train left the station last night, just one came in and it's something she's never experienced. thankfully, she said that most customers were very understanding but of course you can expect one or two might be a bit put out by not being able to get to their destination. it's caused by severe flooding and this morning the line between liskeard and looe, that is still closed today. passengers in the south of england unfortunately, that advice does stand, check your train service before you set off. thank you. multiple flood warnings are in place along the river severn — including the

here at paddington we are seeing quite a few cancellations on the departure boards.roblems yesterday and is still having some description today. so you get cruise and trends that have been left in the wrong places by thoseissues been left in the wrong places by those issues yesterday and also there is a landslip, meaning no services can run between yeovil junction and exeter. destruction elsewhere includes some railway services in lincolnshire being disrupted. so not a great picture out there. do check before you travel if you need to travel today. also some main roads were hit by flooding, including some really major routes. part of the m25 was affected by flooding. i am told by national highways that a lot of the incidents on main routes have now been cleared up. but it is actually the second time this week alone that there has been a lot of disruption because of severe weather. and incidence of intense and severe weather, intense rainfall are posing increasing challenges for our transport networks. the heavy rain from storm henk has also brought flooding to northe

normally they would run to services an hour from the west country into london paddington, that is downt services on some of those lines but they are saying that they won't be able to replace all of they won't be able to replace all of the trains. so what passengers can expect is cancellations and delays on that particular line. just looking at acts to delete my exodus and david's where that line goes, the 1044 to cardiff which was delayed by one hour and 27 minutes, the service to plymouth delayed by 31 minutes and the service to london waterloo cancelled, the reason is that the alternative line that goes down the other side out of london waterloo into exodus and david's, there is flooding on that line. —— exeter sent david's. so there is currently no service running from exeter saint davids to yeovil. also the line between gloucester and lydney is also shut at the moment. that is affecting cross—country and transport for whale services. so really, that whole area from the south—west down and out of london into the south—west is going to be subject to delays and cancellations today. th
