Military planners are to meet council officials in Somerset later to see what support is needed to help the flood-hit county.
On Wednesday Owen Paterson announced amphibious vehicles could be deployed to help flood victims within 24 hours.
A Ministry of Defence spokesman said the meeting with Somerset County Council would take place "at first light".
The Somerset Levels have been badly hit by flooding in recent weeks.
"The military officers will help plan what support is needed and where they need it. We will then work to make that happen," an MoD spokesman said.
Villages such as Muchelney have been cut off for almost a month and about 11,500 hectares (28,420 acres) of the Levels are flooded by about 65 million cubic metres of water.
More heavy rain is expected over the next few days.
