Guardian: The army has been deployed after the effects of Storm Desmond left more than 60,000 homes in the north of England without power. Cumbria was the most affected county, with schools and hospitals closed and nearly 50 severe flood warnings remaining in place in north-west England.
If youve been affected by the flooding, we want to hear from you. Has your community been flooded? Are you without power or water? Are you unable to go to work, or are your children off school? Let us know your stories...
