A man’s body has been recovered from floodwater near the River Aire in North Yorkshire, as police appealed for help identifying him. Officers believe he entered the water over the weekend.
The first confirmed death in the severe winter storm impacting much of Britain came as 50 children had to be rescued by 4x4 vehicles from a primary school in Lincolnshire after being stranded in floodwaters.
Leicestershire and neighbouring Lincolnshire declared major incidents as they responded to hundreds of calls for help as waterways spilled over their banks and turned roads into rivers, burying cars up to their roofs.
Nearly 60 people were rescued from swamped homes and vehicles, the Leicestershire fire service said on X.
Hundreds of schools were closed for the first day of classes of 2025, trains were halted and commuters experienced significant disruption as sections of highways and major roads were closed by high water and snow.
Much of the UK has been hit by strong winds and periods of heavy rainfall or snow that struck before New Year’s Day, cancelling several fireworks displays and other celebrations.
Warnings to expect flooding were issued in nearly 200 places in England by late Monday afternoon.

Flights cancelled at Aberdeen Airport as staff unable to de-ice planes

Holly Evans
Airline companies based at Aberdeen Airport have had to cancel and delay flights as they have been unable to de-ice planes, with many being rerouted through Edinburgh Airport.
Although the runway at the airport remains open and operational, the respective airline companies have had no choice but to make the decision.
A spokesman for Aberdeen International Airport said: “We understand how frustrating delays can be, especially during challenging weather conditions.
“While the airport is responsible for de-icing runways and taxiways to ensure safe take-offs and landings, the de-icing of individual aircraft is managed by the airlines and their contracted ground handling teams.
“Aberdeen International Airport has remained open and operational due to the hard work of our team in maintaining the airfield.”
Showers are also due to fall as rain or sleet on lower ground on Monday evening, with forecasters warning this could lead to a risk of icy stretches.

Potential for further snow on Wednesday
Monday 6 January 2025 21:15
Holly Evans
The Met Office has warned that there is a chance of further snow in the southwest on Wednesday, with a yellow weather warning in place from 9am until midnight.
Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist, Mike Silverstone, explained: “There is a chance of a further spell of rain, sleet and snow moving in from the southwest on Wednesday to affect some southern parts of the UK.”
“Whilst not all those in the warning area may be affected, it is possible that that 2-5 cm of snow may accumulate fairly widely. Whether this system will brush the south of the UK or miss us altogether still remains a little uncertain, but we’ll continue to assess this over the next day or two. Weather warnings may well be updated, so it’s important people stay up to date with the forecast.”

Mental health support should be given to those affected by flooding, minister says
Monday 6 January 2025 20:30
Holly Evans
Those affected by flooding should be given support to deal with the mental health impacts “as quickly as possible”, a shadow environment minister has argued.
In the Commons, Dr Neil Hudson said: “We must not underestimate the mental health impacts that flooding has on communities, both in terms of the anxiety of being flooded, but also the trauma when flooding does hit.
“It is essential that practical support is provided as quickly as possible and remains in place after the waters have subsided, and the blue lights have departed.”
He added: “The Conservatives ring-fenced £100 million to help communities threatened by repeated flooding, can the minister commit to that funding, and will those affected by flooding again in this latest period of bad weather be eligible to apply?”
Environment minister Emma Hardy said she shared Dr Hudson’s concern about the mental health impact of flooding, adding: “We’re going to look at (the) flood funding formula in a whole and look at how it all works.”

Met Office Chief Meteorologist, Frank Saunders, said: “Hail, sleet or snow showers are expected to affect parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland, spreading to Wales and parts of northwest England this evening, before moving into part of southwest England, the Midlands and southern England during the early hours of Tuesday. Rain or hail is more likely towards some western coasts.
“Icy stretches which develop overnight as a result of these showers, or the recent wet conditions, could bring some disruption to travel.
“In addition to the ice, we could see snow accumulations of a few cm above 200 metres, with a chance of greater than 5 cm above 200 metres in Wales. The heaviest snow showers may also produce temporary accumulations of 0-2 cm at low levels. It is not possible to say exactly where this snow might fall, so it’s important that people are prepared.”

Government to invest £2.4bn in flood defences
Monday 6 January 2025 18:46
Holly Evans
Environment minister Emma Hardy said the Government intends to refresh its approach to funding flood defences and bring in a new approach in 2026.
She told the Commons: “Flood defence integrity is at its lowest since 2009/10, with approximately 60,000 properties less well protected than if flood defences were at an optimal condition. This is why we’re investing £2.4 billion over the next two years to build and maintain flood defences.”
She added: “To make the most of our flood forming, we’ll be refreshing our approach to funding flood defences, including a review of the existing flood funding formula … to ensure the challenges facing businesses and rural and coastal communities are taken into account when delivering flood protection.
“We were going to consult on this new approach in the new year, and of course, I’ll inform all members when that consultation is live, and we aim to bring the approach in from April 2026.”
Body found in flood water in North Yorkshire

Police have asked for help in identifying a body found in flood water. North Yorkshire Police said the body was recovered earlier on Monday from an area of flooding near Intake Lane in Beal, close to Eggborough and Knottingley.
Officers have made inquiries locally and with neighbouring forces in Humberside and West Yorkshire but have been unable to identify the man, who was found without any personal belongings.
He was white, in his early 50s to 60s, with light brown short hair and stubble.
He wore brown walking boots, blue jeans with a brown belt, a multi-coloured knitted jumper with a zip and hood and a waterproof coat which was possibly dark green.
The man was believed to have entered the water on Saturday or Sunday.
In a post shared on social media, the force said: “Does this description match someone you know who could be missing? Do you have CCTV, doorbell, or dashcam footage from the area, or any information that could help us piece together what happened?”

Flooding is ‘personal priority’, says environment minister
Monday 6 January 2025 17:37
Holly Evans
Environment minister Emma Hardy told the Commons that “flooding is a personal priority” for her, after fresh weather warnings were issued across large parts of the UK on Monday.
In a statement, Ms Hardy said that as of Monday the Environment Agency’s areas of most concern are the Midlands, Warwickshire, Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire, with a major incident declared in Leicestershire.
She added: “The EA (Environment Agency) are continuing to respond in affected areas, including in the Midlands, Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Birmingham, Nuneaton, Loughborough and the river Trent, Avon, and Idle.
“The Environment Agency are reporting at least 350 properties have flooded, and over 21,000 properties protected since New Year’s Eve. Over the next 24 to 36 hours, as water moves to the lower reaches and slower responding catchments, there will likely be some localised flooding across multiple smaller areas.
“Climate change will inevitably lead to more severe weather of the kind you have seen this weekend, but I want to reassure the House that flooding is a personal priority for me and one of our top five priorities in Defra (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs).”

Simon Calder on a third weekend in a row of weather-triggered disruption to UK aviation
Monday 6 January 2025 16:01
Holly Evans
For a third weekend in a row, thousands of airline passengers woke up where they did not intend to be after large-scale flight cancellations. The Independent calculates that at least 150 flights to, from and within the UK were grounded on Sunday 5 January alone because of heavy snow and high winds.
With few alternative departures available, it is likely that 20,000 passengers were stranded – both in the UK and abroad – because their flights were cancelled or diverted.
The biggest problems were at Manchester airport, where the runway was closed because of snow for three hours on Sunday morning. The closure triggered 15 diversions – mainly of intercontinental flights – and 70 cancellations.
Some planes were diverted abroad, to Paris, Dublin and Shannon. The unluckiest passengers to be caught up in the snow chaos were the 243 on board Singapore Airlines flight SQ52, who endured not one but two diversions from Manchester to Gatwick.

“The impact of the weather, and the fact many people are using their vehicles for the first time after a festive break, means we’re expecting to be 80% busier than normal.
“At our peak today, we will be dealing with upwards of 20 new breakdowns every minute.
“We urge drivers who know their vehicles are slow to start to book in a mobile mechanic or reliable local garage as soon as possible as it may mean a new battery is required.
“Conditions are especially challenging due to heavy rain and snowmelt causing flooding across the country.”
