Two English counties have been declared a major disaster, and hundreds of flood warnings and warnings have also been issued as the country continues to be hit by severe weather.
It comes after a man's body was discovered in a flooded area in North Yorkshire.
Police said the body was found near Intake Lane in Beale, near Eggborough and Knottingley.
Officers believe the man, a white man in his early 50s to early 60s, with short light brown hair and stubble, may have been in the water within the past 24 to 48 hours.
It is unclear how the man, who was “unofficially identified” by police, died.
On Monday, both Leicestershire and Lincolnshire declared a state of severe weather following the extreme weather that hit the UK and Ireland.
Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service was the first emergency service in England to declare an incident, saying it had received more than 200 calls about widespread flooding since Monday morning.
Fifty-nine people were rescued on Monday, but Lincolnshire authorities warned the situation could worsen overnight as lying water freezes.
The Lincolnshire Resilience Forum declared a serious incident shortly afterwards, noting that emergency services rescued children stranded at a school in Edenham.
A recovery support group said that thanks to firefighters and volunteers, 45 students were “safely evacuated.''
