Flooding may affect locations near the River Went, with low-lying land and roads expected to be most affected, particularly around Sykehouse including Chapel Lane from Topham Ferry House to Sunny Manse.

No further significant rainfall is expected overnight and it is forecast to be mainly dry and cold for the next few days.
