Flash floods have caused travel chaos in London as several train and tube stations including Euston lines were forced to close lines due to the downpours.

Delays and cancellations from Euston in London are expected to cause havoc for travellers this morning after flooding on the lines halted services on Monday evening.

Commuters were left stranded as the wild weather left them unable to travel in or out of the city via the major transport hub.

London was forecast to be hit by as much as 60mm within the space of a few hours on Monday night.

Thunderclaps boomed across the capital before the sudden deluge.

Euston Station"s official Twitter account said services would be delayed and cancelled until the water drained away.
