WATCH: London Driver Ploughs Into Flood
A huge clean-up operation has begun after a month's rain fell in just three hours in some parts of London and Surrey - with trapped people pulled out of cars by emergency services.
Our 999 control officers received around 200 calls during storm - 3 times as many as usual: https://t.co/IQVhUdjxC9 pic.twitter.com/ZI6kmkEzTW
