Tourists were forced to evacuate the Marble Arch Caves in Northern Ireland as they began to flood due to heavy rainfall. Staircases turned into waterfalls, prompting guides to quickly evacuate visitors.

According to the Daily Mail, staff provided umbrellas and led tourists to safety. The caves flooded due to heavy rainfall affecting the United Kingdom, with authorities issuing flood warnings.
