Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.LONDON -- Residents in central England and Wales piled up sandbags, readied water pumps and hoped for the best Tuesday as rivers peaked after a weekend storm brought up to 6 inches of rain to an already waterlogged region.
The Welsh water supplier asked residents to reduce their usage after a water treatment plant was flooded and lost power. Welsh Water said it had “limited storage of drinking water until we're able to access and restart the treatment works." Dave Throup, a manager in the region for the Environment Agency, tweeted; “I've seen things today I would not have believed. … This is not normal flooding, we are in uncharted territory."
