Heavy rain caused major rivers to burst their banks on Sunday after the third named storm in a week hit the UK

Ben Hocking from the EA said water levels in York are expected to peak "somewhere between 4.5m and 5m" this morning.

This is above the level of 2m, which is classed as top of the normal range for the river.

The highest level to be recorded in the city was 5.4m, on 4 November 2000.

City of York Council, external is reassuring residents that all necessary defences and support is in place and the city is prepared for the rising river levels.

A total of 49 flood warnings, external and 32 flood alerts remain in place across Yorkshire.

Police data reveals revoked gun licences have been returned to people accused of violent crimes.

There are 41 flood alerts and 74 flood warnings still in place across Yorkshire, following heavy rain during Storm Franklin.

The Environment Agency told people who could be affected to continue to be aware of water levels, but said most people would avoid any flooding.

A spokesperson for the government agency said: “Heavy and persistent rain on Sunday led to very high river levels across our region, but we are now seeing an improving situation in the upper catchments of the Aire, Calder and Don, with levels having passed their peak.

"Areas in the lower reaches of the Aire and Don remain high with washlands filling and working as expected."

River levels on the River Ouse in York are expected to peak through tomorrow morning and into the afternoon.

"Forecast peaks are not expected to result in any widespread flooding of properties," a spokesperson added.

There were three flooded properties in South and West Yorkshire, with eight properties flooded on the River Wharfe in Tadcaster, it said.

An appeal's been made to people in York to avoid areas flooded as a result of Storm Franklin.

River levels in the city are continuing to rise, with nine flood warnings in place, external.

Appealing on social media, the York Rescue Boat crew said: "If you do come to York, do not drive, cycle or walk through flood water.

"You cannot always tell if there has been any substance or any manhole covers are missing."

The crew also advised people to avoid Skeldergate (pictured below), which runs parallel to the River Ouse.

A spokesperson said: "Access along Skeldergate is now blocked by flood water, the river levels will continue to rise through today. Please find an alternative route."

Water levels in York are forecast to rise, peaking at 5.1m at 11:45 on Tuesday, according to the Environment Agency, external.

This is above the level of 2m, which is classed as top of the normal range for the river.

Once it reaches 3m, the warning means property flooding is possible. It's currently at about 4.3m.

Homes and businesses are evacuated across Yorkshire as major rivers burst their banks.

Flooding is currently affecting a road near Goole in East Yorkshire, according to East Riding Council.

It doesn't look as though the road will be open again until tomorrow now:

West Yorkshire's fire and rescue service has had a busy few days and nights as Storm Franklin caused flooding across the region.

It has urged people to "know the risk and prepare":

The surgery, which serves 8,000 people, will only have one doctor from the end of March.

Bird flu passes between birds through direct contact or bodily fluids and new strains often appear.

This was filmed on the River Aire in Kirkstall, Leeds, on Sunday, when the high river levels due to heavy rain during Storm Franklin led to the destruction of an old footbridge.

Andrew Tutin, who owns The Climbing Lab indoor bouldering centre nearby, filmed a pontoon floating down the river and crashing into the Armley Mills bridge, leaving it in pieces.

The inquest will examine the role gambling played in the death of Jack Ritchie, from Sheffield.

Six houses on a street in Riddlesden, near Keighley, have been evacuated after the back garden of one of the properties collapsed into the River Aire.

The houses are at the end of Westlea Avenue, just behind the historic East Riddlesden Hall.

Residents do not yet know when they will be able to return.

They have been offered hot water and food at Riddlesden United Reformed Church, in Bar Lane.

With water levels rising in Tadcaster, Bridge Street in the town centre has been flooded, with the River Wharfe overflowing, affecting homes and businesses.

This picture from Debbie Harris shows how high the levels became on Monday morning, but the Environment Agency says it's not expecting them to rise further.

However, it has warned people to avoid using low-lying paths in the area for the moment.

Nick Devine, who has a butcher's shop in the town, says his shop has been affected by flooding, but he doesn't yet know how bad things are.

"Who knows what it's going to be like on the inside? We've got flood defences up, that's better than last time because we didn't have the flood defences then," he says.

"Hopefully it won't be too bad in there, but it's not looking brilliant."

PC Alan Dudzinski, who was suspended after his arrest in May, is due in court next month.

Flood alerts remain in place around much of the River Wharfe in West Yorkshire, particularly in Ilkley, Otley, Wetherby and Collingham.

River levels have dropped overnight, but there are still some issues with roads around the Wharfe.

The Environment Agency said flooding is forecast to affect locations near the River Wharfe, with low-lying land expected to be most affected.

It said the most affected areas were around the Lower River Wharfe and tributaries from Ilkley to upstream of Ulleskelf.

On Sunday, heavy rainfall led to the river bursting its banks at several places, with Denton Road in Ilkley becoming impassable, and the water spilling out and covering Ilkley park (pictured below).

The A65 Manor Park Bends was also closed, as was the A660 Burley-in-Wharfedale to Otley and Low Park Road, which runs from Ben Rhydding to Askwith.

I've been in lower Sprotborough near Doncaster this morning where the River Don burst its banks on Sunday evening.

The Boat Inn (above) has sadly seen all this before.

The flood-hit pub had to be refurbished after it was inundated with water in November 2019 when the River Don overtopped.

Writing on Facebook on Monday the owners said: "After the heavy rainfall yesterday we will not be opening today. Whilst we stayed (almost) dry, the environment agency are predicting the high tide/peak to be at around 12pm today, so we must leave our defences in place for the time being, Boat Lane also remains closed."

The Environment Agency has issued seven flood warnings for the area., external

These include:

• River Don at Braithwaite, external
• River Don at Conisbrough, external
• River Don at Kirk Bramwith, external
• River Don at Lower Sprotbrough, external
• River Don at South Bramwith, external
• River Don at Thorpe in Balne, external
• River Don at Trumfleet, external

Flood water is being pumped out of The Lowther pub in York, which stands right next to the River Ouse.

Water levels in York are forecast to rise, peaking at 5.1m at 11:45 on Tuesday, according to the Environment Agency, external.

This is above the level of 2m, which is classed as top of the normal range for the river.

Once it reaches 3m, the warning means property flooding is possible - it is currently at 4.3m.

The highest level to be recorded at the Viking Recorder measuring station on the Ouse was 5.4m, on 4 November 2000.
