People in parts of Worcestershire have been advised to prepare for flooding after heavy rainfall.
Two flood warnings have been issued by the Environment Agency (EA) covering stretches of the River Avon around Pershore and Strensham.
The warnings mean the EA considers flooding likely.
Several roads have been closed by the county council and include New Street in Upton-upon-Severn, and Bransford Court Lane in Bransford.
A lower-grade flood alert was also issued on Tuesday morning for the River Severn in Worcestershire.
This was due to rising river levels at Diglis, Worcester, according to the EA.
