Homes are left almost totally underwater so far another storm batters Britain - and father-to-be Boris Johnson still hasn't visited one victim.

Strong winds of up to 70mph, showers and snow across parts of Scotland and northern England are forecast for Sunday morning, with many areas waking to a frost and ice.

There also are 87 flood warnings in situ across the country and 185 flood alerts, consistent with the Environment Agency.

Shocking new images from Snaith in East Yorkshire show homes deeply submerged underwater and therefore the interiors of several houses are completely destroyed, with water rising to the extent of the highest of kitchen counters.

The Met Office has issued a yellow wind warning across much of England and Wales until 9am and across Northern Ireland , southern Scotland and northern England until 3pm.

Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office, Frank Saunders, said: 'On Sunday, the bulk of the united kingdom is roofed by Yellow weather warnings with some areas being covered by quite one warning, indicating multiple weather hazards.'

Heavy rain warnings for parts of Wales, South West England and North West England are indicating that some isolated areas of Wales could see the maximum amount as 100 mm of rainfall.

Flood-hit towns took another severe battering this weekend as February was declared the wettest on record, however it's now been 15 days since Boris hasn't visited flood victims.

Storm Jorge was the newest during a series which have struck the united kingdom , bringing heavy downpours, 70 mph gales and snow.

Rain-soaked areas in East Yorkshire are battered by torrential downpours for several days causing the Aire to bust its banks and leave a neighborhood the dimensions of Lake Windermere under water, as shown by drone footage.

More than 78 homes and businesses have already been flooded within the area and residents in danger of more flooding are urged to organize by moving valuables upstairs.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council said water levels are generally dropping or remaining stable in Snaith, Gowdall, East Cowick and West Cowick, but are expected to stay high for several days.

Andrew Percy, the MP for the world , has met with residents and Environment Agency chiefs today, and involved the govt to review how it allocates flood defence money.

Mr Percy, Conservative MP for Brigg and Goole, said: 'We sleep in a flood risk area, but there is no precedent of it during this area, there is no record of flooding during this area.
