Storm Henk brought extreme winds to many parts of London on Tuesday which led to travel disruption and chaos across the city.
The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for rain across London in the upcoming days, which could see power cuts, floods and further travel carnage.
Transport delays will continue today as train services get back on track after rain and strong winds from Storm Henk lashed large parts of the UK.
In Greenwich, south-east London, a large panel of scaffolding fell from either side of a building on Creek Road due to the heavy winds.
Marketing manager Josh Hargreaves, 30, told the PA news agency that he and his boyfriend had watched the scaffolding “pretty much swaying in the wind” before falling from the front of the building at around 3.40pm.
Then, an hour later, scaffolding fell from the back of the building as well.
Despite some sunny spells today, the Met Office has released a yellow warning for rain on Thursday and Friday, which could lead to further flooding and more travel disruption.
The warning is in place from 12pm on Thursday (January 4) until 3am on Friday (January 5).
