We expect rivers to remain high throughout Sunday and may issue further flood warnings if required. Take care near areas of concern and check your local river levels on gov.uk. We are monitoring river levels and have staff in the area clearing blockages. This message will be updated by 11am on Sunday or earlier if the situation changes.
