Flood levels continue to rise along parts of the Thames

In Wraysbury, residents and volunteers are actively responding to severe flooding caused by the River Thames. The community has distributed nearly 100,000 sandbags to protect homes, many of which are surrounded by waist-deep water. The situation is dire, with some residents unable to leave their homes. The flooding is not isolated to Wraysbury, as nearby areas face similar challenges, including threats to electricity substations. The cold weather is exacerbating the situation by turning floodwaters to ice, and more bad weather is expected. The community's efforts highlight the resilience and cooperation needed to combat such natural disasters.
