Flooding are the most common form of natural disaster in the UK and are now part and parcel of the British winter months; widespread flooding happens at least once a year in the UK. Earlier this year, torrents of rain hit the UK, with Cumbria the worst-affected area; heavy, prolonged rainfall caused bridges and road networks to collapse and four people lost their lives. In 2007, Yorkshire was hit hard by floods and some people are still recovering from the destruction caused by the floods three years later; the floods killed six people and left hundreds of people homeless and thousands without electricity.
