Widespread travel disruption took place across Britain on Monday as a result of Storm Bert, which pounded the country with a deluge of rain and fierce winds over the weekend.
At least three people were killed in England and Wales amid sweeping floods, landslides, fallen trees, road accidents and power outages.
Warnings of strong winds also remained in place in parts of Scotland through Monday, and residents in parts of Wales were told to boil water before using it as the supplier was investigating possible contamination.
Hundreds of flights were canceled over the weekend, with many train services suspended and some roads closed.
Among the affected train services were the Stansted and Gatwick express lines, which service the London-area airports.
