Flash flooding has caused travel chaos in parts of England as thunderstorms dumped almost half a month's rain in some parts overnight.
A train from Milton Keynes to Euston derailed near Watford Junction, injuring two people.
The worst-hit areas are across the east, south and south-east of England which all have amber warnings in place, according to the Met Office.

We had torrential rain, thunderstorms, flash floods and travel disruption oop North on Tuesday and no-one gave a toss on national news. Once the Sarf East is affected, it's a headline-worthy crisis.Comment

I arrived into London at 6am today on the sleeper train into Paddington. Casually went for some breakfast at the GWR 1st-class lounge knowing my KGX connection wasn't until 7:30 and early morning it only takes 15 min to get across.
Thought I'd check the TFL website to see how frequently the trains were, only to find there was a strike!
Made my connection by about 10 minutes but only because the 20-minute reduced service just happened to arrive as I got on the platform.
It was raining quite a lot too - is this thread about the strike or the weather?Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
