As the rain poured down in Colliers Wood, South West London, cyclists found themselves struggling to make their way through a section of road that had become partially flooded. The heavy rainfall overnight had caused chaos for commuters, who were now being advised to check their journeys before heading out this morning.
The impact of the rain was widespread, with train lines and roads alike being submerged in water. Already, five Tube lines - the Piccadilly, London Overground, District, and Metropolitan - were experiencing disruptions, and the Bakerloo line was facing severe delays. Even National Rail was issuing warnings, stating that services across England and Wales may be affected due to the forecasted amount of rain, which could equal a month's worth in some areas.
The situation was not any better for those traveling by road. National Highways urged drivers to consider alternative routes into London, as the A3 northbound entry slip road from the M25 at junction 10 roundabout was closed due to flooding. Meanwhile, Great Northern, Gatwick Express, Southern, and Thameslink routes were all experiencing severe weather-related disruptions. These issues were expected to continue until at least 7:30 am.
