A woman has died after apparently being swept away by floodwater as heavy downpours continue to batter parts of the Midlands and Yorkshire.
The body of the woman, who is yet to be identified, was recovered in Darley Dale, near Matlock, at around 10.40am on Friday, Derbyshire Police said.
She was reported to have been swept away by floodwater in Rowsley in the early hours, as much of the country was hit by torrential downpours.
The death came as the Environment Agency repeated warnings for people to stay away from swollen rivers, with residents describing the deluge as "almost biblical".
Yorkshire and the Midlands were the worst affected areas, with six severe "danger to life" warnings in place around the River Don as of 1pm.
