Storm Bert live: Commuters face chaos as trains cancelled and roads flooded

The Telegraph  

Storm Bert’s “devastating” impact across the UK has continued into Monday as Brits were issued with “do not travel” warnings. The Met Office forecast that rain in the south-east of England would clear on Monday but blustery showers could stick around for the north-west. Rail passengers have been urged not to travel between Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, and Stansted Airport after multiple fallen trees damaged the electrical overhead wires. London Northwestern Railway reported that no rail services would operate through Northampton station due to the River Nene bursting its banks. Southern, which runs rail services across the south-east of England, said some services on Monday will be cancelled or revised because of forecast severe weather, including on its London network and the West Coastway between Havant and Southampton.
