The clean-up operation is under way across Cambridgeshire, after torrential storms sparked power cuts and major disruption on the roads.
Electricity was restored by 22:40 BST on Friday to more than 1,400 homes, after about 2in (50mm) of rain fell across the county in an hour.
More than 500 people were evacuated from Tesco stores in Bar Hill and March. Both have now reopened.
Three fire crews remain in March to help residents who have been flooded.
In West Yorkshire, a hospice was flooded and fire crews had to pump out water from the accident and emergency department of Bradford Royal Infirmary after the water levels rose.
Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue received more than 270 flood related calls between 12:45 BST on Friday and 08:30 BST. Firefighters were called to about 60 properties in March, Doddington and Wisbech St Mary.
Mark Steele, the manager of Tesco in March, said: "The staff and customers were fantastic... everyone could see the weather was incredibly bad.
"The staff were helping customers to their cars, taking there shoes and socks off and going across in bare feet. The older customers were taken across in the trolleys and helped to their cars."
BBC Radio Cambridgeshire reported a number of properties in March remain flooded with crews pumping water from Century Way.
John Hammond, who went to the rescue centre at St Johns Church Hall in March, said: "I didn't realise how bad it was until I went outside the house and met four or five inches or water, it was everywhere."
BBC Travel also reported Nene Parade in the town remains closed following a landslip on the banks of the River Nene.
