Several London neighbourhoods are still under flood alerts and warnings, even though the intense rain and flooding from Thursday have subsided.
The floods caused the emergency closure of London Underground stations for safety on Thursday afternoon and led to the sinking of a party boat moored at Temple Pier on the Thames. After water levels between Dace Road and Wick Road in Hackney rose, 70 firefighters were sent to the site and 50 residents of Hackney Wick had to leave their houses due to flooded streets.
