A third person has died as Storm Babet swept across the UK causing widespread flooding and high winds which also forced a passenger plane to skid off a runway.
A man in his 60s died after getting caught in fast-flowing flood water in the town of Cleobury Mortimer in Shropshire, West Mercia Police said, after two people died in Scotland.
Passengers also had to be evacuated from a plane after it came off the runway at Leeds Bradford Airport as it attempted to land in windy conditions.
There were no reports of any injuries, operator Tui said.
An airport spokesperson said: "We can confirm Tui flight TOM3551 arriving from Corfu at LBA this afternoon has moved off the runway whilst landing.
"We are working with the airline, relevant operations teams and emergency authorities to address this situation and remove passengers from the aircraft safely."
The death in Shropshire is the third so far during the second named storm of the season.
West Mercia Police said: "Members of the public reported that the man had gone under the water shortly before 10.40am this morning.
"Officers from West Mercia Police and Shropshire Fire and Rescue quickly attended but sadly he was found deceased at around 12.35pm.
"Whilst formal identification hasn't yet taken place the family of a local man in his 60s have been informed and are being supported by officers."
Police Scotland previously said a falling tree hit a van near Forfar in Angus on Thursday evening, killing the 56-year-old driver.
A 57-year-old woman also died on Thursday after being swept into a river in the region.
Further south, Suffolk has declared a major incident as Storm Babet caused "major flooding" across the county.
In an update on its website, Suffolk County Council urged residents not to travel unless "absolutely necessary".
An amber weather warning for rain is in place for some parts of northern England including Yorkshire and Manchester, as well as some of the Midlands, including Nottingham.
A yellow weather warning for much of the east coast of the UK was also put in place for wind and rain.
A further yellow weather warning is in place across much of northern England and the Midlands for wind and rain.
The "unprecedented" weather event has already caused some residents in eastern Scotland to evacuate their homes and cut off rural communities there.
More than 75 people were in rescue centres in Angus, east Scotland, while Angus Council said people in more than 60 homes in Brechin, who refused previous evacuation attempts, required rescue.
The UK Met Office has said: "Prolonged and very heavy rain is expected to develop across parts of Angus and Aberdeenshire area throughout Saturday, in areas already affected by severe flooding.
"Accumulations of 70-100mm are expected over a period of 18-24 hours, the highest accumulations over the hills.
"Less rainfall is expected around coastal areas, but impacts from the higher rainfall further west will extend towards the coast."
Angus Council, which serves the town near the eastern Scottish coast, said parts of Brechin are only accessible by boat and added: "Angus is in the middle of a very serious emergency. Flooding is unprecedented. Levels are over half a metre over the last highest ever."
Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf said: "I cannot stress how dangerous conditions are in Brechin in particular."
Brechin councillor Jill Scott said: "It's horrific. It's just absolutely horrendous. I've never seen anything like it."
She said people had been trapped for hours, warning: "There will be hundreds of houses flooded."
Angus Council said rescue crews are dealing with around 100 calls in areas of Brechin which had been asked to evacuate.
Fire crews and the Coastguard began evacuating residents last night - knocking on residents' doors advising them to leave.
The region was battered by heavy rain and 20,000 properties were hit by power cuts, although Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) said electricity had been restored to almost 18,500.
The Environment Agency said homes could be flooded in 45 areas of England and the Scottish
Environment Protection Agency also warned there is a "danger to life" due to widespread flooding in five areas of Scotland, with flooding expected in a further 16 areas.
Gusts in excess of 95km/h are likely, with particularly poor conditions on immediate coastlines with large waves adding to the list of hazards.
The rare Met Office red weather warning began at 6pm yesterday and has been expanded to include Dundee, Perth and Kinross, as well as Angus and Aberdeenshire, where huge waves were seen crashing in Stonehaven harbour.

Storm Babet hit Ireland on Wednesday after sweeping in from the Atlantic, bringing with it heavy rainfall and causing extensive flooding in parts of Cork and Waterford.
Cork County Council said more than a month's worth of rain had fallen in the space of 24 hours, leading to unprecedented flooding, saturated land and high river levels across the county.
Lighthouse loses dome
A lighthouse has lost its distinctive dome in Storm Babet, port officials have said.
The lighthouse at the mouth of the River Tyne was lashed by strong winds and rough seas overnight and into this morning.
Port of Tyne officials said it was not safe to assess the damage to the South Shields lighthouse, a distinctive Tyneside landmark with a red and white top, while the ongoing weather conditions remained dangerous.
No traffic was going in and out of the river with six metres of sea swell, it said.
The public have been urged to keep away from the area, particularly the piers, by the port authority, due to the unsafe weather conditions.
Built in 1895, the lighthouse is located on the River Tyne South Pier.
