epa05057056 A handout photograph made available by the Royal Nataional Lifeboat Intstitution (RNLI) showing RNLI Flood Rescue Team volunteers helping to evacute flood victims in Carlisle, north west England, 06 December 2015. Matt Crofts, RNLI Lifesaving Delivery Manager, said the conditions were dreadful overnight. He said: ?As well as the heavy rain, the wind has made conditions difficult and some areas have been almost impossible to reach, even for our specialist flood team. The main flood response efforts are now turning to Carlisle, where the water levels are still rising and people who have been trapped in their homes since yesterday will need to be taken to safety.? Storm Desmond brought extreme weather to many other areas of northern England and Scotland as the government issued severe flood warnings for 31 areas of England and Wales, with many of the warnings along swollen rivers.
