The agency said more flood warnings are expected for some of the worst affected areas into next week – despite severe flood warnings, meaning risk of death or serious injury, being lifted.
The Environment Agency has warned there could be more flooding in the coming days as stricken households try to make their homes safe again. Around 1,250 properties in England have been flooded and an estimated 30,000 properties have been protected, the EA has said.
Derbyshire Police said the pensioner was found dead at about 10.35am on Saturday at her home in Tapton Terrace, Chesterfield. Her son Paul Gilbert told Sky News he found his mother “floating in the water”. Wendy Taylor, 57, died after being swept into the Water of Lee, Glen Esk, on Thursday, Police Scotland said. Her family described her as “a ray of sunshine for everyone who was fortunate enough to know her” in a tribute issued through police.
Hundreds fled the street and nearby areas when the River South Esk burst its banks and overtopped flood defences, sending water pouring into the lower floors of many properties. Derby City Council saw record-breaking water levels in the River Derwent and warned that cleaning up after the floods could take several days.
