Heavy rainfall following Storm Chandra has raised fears of severe flooding in Burrowbridge, Somerset. Lesley and John Parker, a retired couple, have installed flood defences fearing water will come straight up through the floor. The couple recalled 2014 flooding that forced evacuation after three feet of water entered their home. Somerset Council declared a major incident as local pumps run at full capacity and a key route through Burrowbridge is closed. Neighbours share fear about forecast heavy rain on Thursday. The Parkers reported feeling largely left to their own devices and criticized the Environment Agency's response.
