This Flood Warning has been removed.
River levels have now fallen below the flood warning threshold. However, a Flood Alert remains in force for the wider area, so flooding may still affect roads and low lying land.
We are closely monitoring the situation, and we will reissue further Flood Warnings as required. Please be aware of your surroundings and keep up to date with the current situation.
