River levels are due to peak now across the county - with warnings that flooding is possible in Kendal, Burneside, Keswick, Egremont, Wigton, Dalton, Ulverston and Cummersdale.

People are being warned not to travel unless it is absolutely necessary as many roads are impassible.

Cumbria Fire and Rescue say they've dealt with more than 30 incidents related to flooding since this morning. Keep listening to BBC Cumbria to stay up-to-date.

Much of tonight will remain mild and wet with further heavy rain and strong winds.

These winds will ease and through the early hours, the rain will move away. Clearer skies will spread in allowing a late dip in temperatures.

Minimum Temperature: 4C (39F).
