there are real constraints in london. so much of the land is paved and we're losing more land to paving as people pave over their front driveways and all of that, so we're trying to work against that by putting in place what we call sustainable drainage. that means that when we introduce new shrubs, new trees into our paving, that actually helps slow down the rainfall, so there are things we can do. we are also enhancing our pumps and drainage systems so that we can get water away more quickly and keep the infrastructure working. lilli matson, thank you forjoining us on this edition of weather world. one of the biggest storms to hit the uk in 2021 came at the end of november as storm arwen brought damaging winds of up to 98mph. falling trees caused widespread disruption, with this one narrowly missing a drinker as it crashed into the back of a pub in wales. tens of thousands of trees came down in the worst affected parts of scotland and north—east england and power was lost to more than 200,000 homes. now to some of you

but lancashire isn't london and many regions aren't well resourced like london, especially at a time when cases are getting up in the 60 plus age group. during a normal winter in england, the nhs would normally expect to see 1000 respiratory illness cases a day. latest figures show there were more than 1800 covid patients alone. evenif more than 1800 covid patients alone. even if you remove those admitted with covid rather than because of it, pressures are high but are far below what we saw this time last year and that's largely down to the vaccine holding up. but the pressures are far below what we saw this time last year. in scotland, restrictions like table service only in hospitality venues are in place, england has fewer measures compared to the rest of the uk but this will be reviewed tomorrow. the government is lookin: at be reviewed tomorrow. the government is looking at the — be reviewed tomorrow. the government is looking at the data _ be reviewed tomorrow. the government is looking at the data all _ be reviewed tomorrow. the government is looking at the data all the _ be

and the other bet is if you look at the london data and i think the london data is important because london went into this omicron peak first and is therefore likely to come out of it first, the number of hospitalisations over the last couple of days has dropped significantly. what was really interesting is when i was talking to london chief executives last week, what they said as they saw some very concerning daily increases of the numbers of people coming to hospital, 9%, 15%, on the 27th, 28th of december but in the last couple of december but in the last couple of days, the numbers have dropped, the increase is i% and 2% so if those numbers continue, there is a feeling that is good news but we still don't know what the effect of the mixing at new year is going to be and we also don't know what is going to be the impact of schools returning. the future is uncertain. those are important factors to consider because from what you were describing in terms of the current numbers in london, the obvious question to ask is does it look like it has peaked in london? certainly there is pret
