Pictures of a triumphant Lizzy Yarnold feature on the front pages of almost all of Saturday's newspapers after she claimed Great Britain's first gold of the Sochi Winter Olympics in the women's skeleton. The Times' lead focuses on the floods, saying the stormy weather has seen businesses and volunteers unite to help victims as the next "surge" approaches the UK . 
The Daily Express sees the latest Met Office forecasts as an indication that the worst of the "storm misery... may be coming to an end". It does note, however, that homes will remain at the risk of flooding for another week as river levels continue to rise. 
The Daily Telegraph says it may be weeks before the effects of the latest storm are felt and flood warnings are to last until spring. Its lead story, however, is on comments to the paper by the Archbishop of Westminster that the government's welfare reforms have "punished the poor". 
The Independent says there is an "immigration crisis on Britain's doorstep". Hundreds of refugees from Syria, Egypt and other war-torn countries who have risked their lives to travel to the UK are stuck in a "fetid" camp in Calais, it reports. 
The Guardian says the Lib Dems are mired in a fresh donor row after one of its benefactors was arrested as part of a Serious Fraud Office investigation into allegations of bribery in Asia. It also carries a report that the future of Papworth, the pioneering heart hospital, is in doubt. 
The Daily Mail reports that the NHS in England is "losing" the files of almost 2,000 patients a day. It says official figures show that more than two million data breaches have been logged since 2011. It comes as the NHS starts to upload some of its medical data on patients to a database. 
A picture of Lizzy Yarnold in action features on the front of the i. Its lead headline sums up the "wild weather" affecting the UK. Wind, rain and snow wreck destruction, the paper says. 
The Financial Times also carries a photograph of Lizzy Yarnold. Its main story - based on an analysis by the paper of salary data - reports that an "uber-middle elite" is reaping the rewards of globalisation as millions of "professionals struggle to maintain a middle class lifestyle. 
It's baby joy, the Daily Mirror says as it carries the news that Simon Cowell's girlfriend has given birth to a son in New York. The paper says the pop music mogul "raced across the Atlantic" to be there. 
The Sun features comments by Simon Cowell as he departed from Heathrow to be with Laura Silverman after she went in to labour two weeks early. He told the paper he was "nervous with excitement" at the imminent birth of his first child. 
The Star also splashes on Simon Cowell's flight from London to New York after his girlfriend reportedly called him in the early hours to say their baby was on the way. "Cowell's The Daddy", the paper says.
