UK storms: New flood fears for rivers and coasts
Britain is already assessing the damage caused by recent severe weather
People are being warned to brace themselves for floods on England's coasts and rivers.
The Environment Agency said the risk of coastal flooding could last throughout the weekend and into next week.
An 18-year-old remains missing in Devon as the Met Office issued severe weather warnings for much of the UK, with heavy rain and ice expected.
A storm surge in Scotland is expected later on Saturday, with low-lying premises on the Firth of Forth at risk.
'Saturated ground'
The Environment Agency said parts of England's north east coast could see flooding later while the south coast - including Portsmouth and Newhaven - is being warned to expect coastal floods over the next two days.
"The risk of flooding to the coast will continue over the next few days, especially on the south and west coast and along the Severn estuary, Jonathan Day from the agency said.
"In addition, wet conditions have left the ground saturated in many areas, increasing the risk of river and surface water flooding."
While four severe flood warnings - which indicate a danger to life - have been lifted, there is an increased risk of flooding risk to Weybridge and Guildford on Sunday and into Monday.
People living along the non-tidal Thames, including Oxford and Osney could be at risk from Sunday.
Barrier closed
BBC weather forecaster Laura Gilchrist said the weather was not out of the ordinary for the time of year, but warned it could cause disruption in areas still reeling from recent storms.
The temperature would be colder than it has been of late, she added.
Meanwhile, severe ice warnings have been issued for North Wales, Scotland and north-west England.
The Met Office said people should prepare for travel disruption as stretches of road freeze overnight.
And forecasters also warned of heavy rain in southern England, south-east Wales, Northern Ireland and parts of Scotland.
The Thames Barrier was closed earlier because of "ongoing high flow/high tide conditions", according to the Environment Agency but is due to reopen at 17:00 GMT.
It comes after hundreds of homes were flooded on Friday as storms battered the UK's coastline.
Residents in Chiswell and Portland in Dorset were evacuated ahead of high tide on Friday night while around 100 people in Aberystwyth, Dyfed, were advised to move to higher ground.
Around 90 properties are estimated to have flooded since Friday, bringing the total to around 220.
