Urgent flood warnings for Bristol after heavy rain batters South West

People in Bristol have been urged to "act now" after flood warnings were issued in the city. A night of heavy rain and strong winds has led to the Environment Agency to put the warnings in place.

Two warnings have been issued which affect Bristol. One is for the River Avon at Pill and Shirehampton, Watch House Road and Station Road areas, while the other is along the coast at Portishead and Portbury Dock.

Along with the warnings, there are also two lower level alerts in place. These cover the River Avon at Bristol, Pill and Shirehampton and another for the coast between Portishead and Portbury Dock.
