Around 1,250 properties in England have been flooded and an estimated 30,000 properties have been protected.
The Environment Agency has warned there could be more flooding in the coming days as stricken households try to make their homes safe again.
The warning comes as 83-year-old Maureen Gilbert was found dead after her home was hit by flooding in Derbyshire, taking the number of people who have died since the storm hit the UK to at least four. Wendy Taylor, 57, died after being swept into the Water of Lee, Glen Esk, on Thursday, Police Scotland said.
“Wendy was the beloved wife, best friend and soulmate in life to George, mother to James, Sally and Susanna and Granny to India and George.” Hundreds fled the street and nearby areas when the River South Esk burst its banks and overtopped flood defences, sending water pouring into the lower floors of many properties.
