They say flooding of roads and farmland is possible between 9:00am and 13:00pm today.

An EA spokesman said: “Areas most at risk are low-lying agricultural land, roads and footpaths. Further rainfall is forecast over the next 12 hours. River levels may begin to rise at 9:00am this morning as a consequence of intense rainfall.

“We are closely monitoring the situation.

They added: “Please plan driving routes to avoid low-lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded and avoid contact with flood water.”

Flood alerts have been issued for Burton Joyce, parts of Gedling, Lambley and Netherfield.
