Today, we look at why it has been raining in England and Wales so much recently - and how UK infrastructure copes during unusually wet periods.
Why is this happening? What effect does heavy rainfall have on our industries and environment? And how can we adapt buildings and transport to better suit the UK’s changing climate?
Adam is joined by Countryfile and Farming Today presenter, Charlotte Smith, BBC weather presenter, Simon King and Chief Executive at the UK Green Building Council, Smith Mordak.
And Chris Packham tells us how animals are getting on in this wet weather.
